Cunninghams Gap - QLD 

However, the route proposed by Cunningham proved too steep to negotiate easily, with drays and their contents having to be lowered by ropes over a cliff line. An alternative route was found in 1847, when stockman Henry Alphen was credited with discovering an easier route through a gap, 7km to the south. It is thought that Aboriginal people used this gap in the range as a trade route between the east and west. Cunningham had noted the gap 20 years earlier but had not suggested its use for transport. Alan Cunningham named Spicer's Gap and peak after Peter Spicer, Superintendent of convicts, because he identified the peak while looking for escaped convicts from the Moreton Bay penal settlement.
