Geocache Description:

A number of different approaches can be used to access the cache, which is located on the side of a hill 171m above sea level.

We parked at 43 34.044,172 39.849 and approached the cache location from the 4WD track that ran along side it (about 20min walk up moderate slope)- you could also approach from the top of the hill along the Summit Road at 43 35.677,172 40.410 or from the track that starts at about 43 34.164,172 39.611

Container is a 7.62 Ammo Can that has been camo painted (I now see why the Yanks rave about ammo cans, they are great!). When placed the cache held:

  • Cordless IR mouse
  • X Files Book (From Gavins Amphitheatre of the Gods cache)
  • Plastic Keyring
  • Can of "Dirty Dog" energy drink
  • Rubber Globe (From Ed's Boulder cache)
  • Hairclip

While you are walking the track see if you can find the virtual 39x34 flag which is part of the MinuteWar game.
