The cache is in a camouflaged plastic bottle about 13 cm long and 7 cm wide. It is no more than 10 m from the pathway.

The engineers were very neat in their design of the bridges and you can use their construction to avoid pacing,measuring etc to find the midpoint.

You may have to be careful about observation by the general public as this is a well used trail.

You might find a flashlight useful on a dark day.
