Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Now, the area around waypoint 1 looked like a nice spot for an Easter Egg hunt. But, wait, we have a better idea - inspired by watching The Amazing Race on tv and reading about another GC cache (not in Australia) - let's hide a cache here!

Go to the listed coordinates and find the container that is cached there. It is full of 'eggs'. Two of these eggs contain the coordinates for the actual cache, so start looking! You only need to find one of these eggs, the only difference is that the coordinate note in one says 'congratulations' and the other one 'well done'. You might like to note which one you find, and how many eggs you had to open. You could be lucky and find them quickly, or, you could be some time - so this may not be the cache to attempt when you are in a hurry!! Please do not remove the coordinates or harm any of the eggs in any way (including boiling, poaching, scrambling, frying, benedicting, marking or leaving in two pieces).

GPS coverage left a bit to be desired at times, more so at GZ than WP1, so don't keep your search too narrow.

At placement the cache had an Easter theme, but unfortunately no chocolate (you can see we had to eat it all for WP!!!. Swaps don't need to follow suit, as Easter will soon be over.

This was our second attempt at this one and the GPS still had us miles from the eggs. Took 17 eggs to get the "congratulations" and then off to locate the cache. This proved to be much easier to get with honours both times to Jr Geo. Thanks for a great cache. TNLN

A great little park with some scrambling up and down :o)

Opened more than 60 of the pesky 'eggs' (you must've had fun making the insides!) before finally finding a 'Congratulations'

Found this one as an after work trip with the geofamily. WP1 was within 4m on a cloudy cool afternnon (550 pm). Mrs Stumble spotted the spot from 20+m away and the geoson got it. geodaughter got the 'Congratulations' on her 3rd try and 8th for the kids, she was choosing her favorite colour, this gave her the find and the lead to WP2. This was off by about 8m but she found it after a little nudge in the right direction. Great 1st real Multi - Took TB 'Stephen' and left 1 cent. TFTCSL

I got eggsasperated at the sight in the WP1 box - it took fourteen eggsasperations, but luckily I found "Congratulations". Got the cache at 1657hrs as my 3rd of 4 today, 256th overall. I loved this cache, great idea. Great little walk from bottom to top. The rock formations were great. Hadn't been there before so thanks for taking me there. TFTC and cheers, Eggsasperatedly greatful, OldSaint.
