A history cache with a bit of excitement.
The above coords will take you to the obvious structure that leads
to the cache. The cache itself is about 150 smallish steps (when
you get there you'll see why they are small)from the alternative
way in, i.e. from S 33 43.796, E 150 17.118, although getting to
this waypoint is a little harder than getting to the first one
mentioned.
The cache is hidden in a rock pile on the southern side of the
structure, in the area where you can actually stand up. There is a
short piece of wood near it. The structure is part of the long
history of the area.
Be careful, and make sure you decrypt the clue. We forgot to
take a pen for the log book, so would the first venturer mind
taking one and leaving it in the cache?!

Tried to find the cache today using clues,150steps took me to area where I can nearly stand up. I,m 6 foot 4 inches tall. Spent about an hour couldn,t see any obvious rock piles or mounds just hundreds of claystone rocks. Turned lots of them working my way along the tunnel, came across a piece of mine prop, timber standing vertically about another 50 meters past the initial 150 small steps, at this point the ceiling height was about 1.5 meters. I have to say I was really disappointed at not finding this cache as a lot of time any effort was put into it including crawling in freezing cold water.

I went here years ago before geocaching was even invented and I am still trying to wash the mud out of my socks.

This cache must be one of those special places that you fine every once in a while and reminds you of why you go caching. There is a time in every cache hunt when I find myself thinking why do I does this and as I took the first steps into the crystal clear water which soon become very murky from the thick muddy bottom, I worked out it is the hunt for the unknown.
The cold water bites at you but only lasts a short while as you are soon concentrating on standing bent double and in an almost crab like possiun you move forward. Finding a few areas to stand and rest we headed along the tunnel to be aware of the low thunder noise. The Bats where grand to watch as they seemed able to fly right by you without any trouble at all.
Finding the roof covered in small droplets of water that has seeped down through the rock above, they appear clear and polished.
Thanks Bushrat.
JABs.

It took less than an hour (including another cache find) to reach the start and not another bushwalker had been seen so far. We started to get a bit worried of what lay ahead by the pair of shorts that had been left on the log at the entrance that were covered in mud.
As we change into some old shoes and shorts the first people came along the track. They gave us some strange looks as they past by and then a lone walker snuck past heading the other way, but we just grabbed the headlamp's and ducked into the bowls of Narrowneck. The water wasn't very deep in the first and subsequent pools, and soon we were back on just a muddy floor walking along like a cross between a crab and The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
We reached the first area that allowed us to stand up and stretch the back (pays to be short sometimes) for a minute and after assuming the gem of a cache.
Thanks Bushrat for the excellent adventure.
