Ye'll tak' the High Road Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Mister Doctor: With all the muggle activity at this location it's time to shut this version of the cache down.

I'm going to relocate a short distance away with a new hide, including new difficulty and terrain ratings, so it will be simpler to just republish it as a new cache.

Republished as "GC7JR08 Ye'll tak' the High Road, once more".

Geocache Description:




“Ye'll tak' the high road and I'll tak' the low road 
And I'll be in Scotland afore ye 
But me and my true love will never meet again 
On the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond”

[Robert Burns]

With the railway grade separation works completed, a chasm now runs between Mitcham and Nunawading stations. Above this low road runs the high road walking and bike path. It is upon this route that you will find a cache (and also a good collection of street art).

Here's tae ye - hae a guid journey!

Cache information - natural selection at work
Two eclipse tins have now been muggled from increasingly trickier hides at this location. Obviously, predatory muggle species with enhanced vision inhabit this area. It’s now time to step up (down?) to a nano cache and continue the arms race! Although the difficulty rating should really be higher as a result, I’ve continued to list it as D1.5 so that basic members are able to view it easily. The hint should also help. You will need to BYO pen.

Note - it can be a little tricky getting a consistent GPS signal in this area. The clue will hopefully steer you in the right direction if your GPS puts you in the middle of the train tracks!
