Nice enjoyable day out for a walk in the hills, having just picked up Dead Mans Chest before wandering over to this treasure trove.

We walked past the cache site and I thought to myself that would be a great spot to hide a cache, only to go a further fifty metres on. After searching that area for a while and not coming up with the cache I decided to check the coordinates. Oops It helps when you enter the right coordinates. So we backtracked and found ourselves at that same great spot for a cache.

Located the cache without any trouble and had a good look through at the contents. No exchanges were made

Thanks for the cache.

Great cache, we loved looking through all the foreign currency. We left a 20,000 Rupiah note and a small bag of various coins. TFTC.
