Geocache Description:

Karangahake Gorge; good gravel tracks. Go in from SH 2 opposite the Talisman Cafe, or via Dickey Flat Rd at the DOC camping ground.

Approx 1 hour one way from SH 2; 15 minutes from Dickey Flat Rd. Interesting old goldmines & tracks enroute. If coming from SH2, be sure to check out the new Windows walk (tunnel with windows) cut into the Waitawheta Gorge. Stand on the bow of the upturned boat for a waypoint. The cache will be on the port (west) side and above.

In cache when placed; 2x $1 scratches; 2 coins; pad & pencil; 1 toy & 1 Ally McBeal tape

Originally placed by Kerry & Christine ("The Elves") in August 2001, now maintained by ags. This cache has a well deserved reputation for being hard to find
