Geocache Description:

WARNING: DEPENDING ON CONDITIONS THIS MAY BE A DIFFICULT OR TREACHEROUS CLIMB - IT IS DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMENDED DURING WINTER!

Cache is located near Karori Wildlife Sanctury. As it is under canopy the reception is patchy, so the following instructions are pretty detailed.

Take the track marked "Wrights Hill/Wind Turbine". When you have crossed the footbridge start looking for a Cave on the other side of the stream. This is an old Gold Mine that runs 70m deep - bring a torch if you want to explore. The cache is approximately 7m above the cave, and should be quite well-hidden. Once found it is possible - though not easy - to continue up to the road - probably a safer option that trying to go back down.

Cache is a bright orange Winnie the Pooh lunchbox.
