Geocache Description:

This cache is easily located along the banks of the often dried up Swakop River bed. It is high enough that hopefully it won't be washed away when the river flows heavily about once every 5 years.

The cache is a 1 liter rubbermaid container. This cache went missing and has since been replaced further up the river. The was placed by Kokoscoot and Kerlew from Canada (Namibia is one of our favourite places to visit) and will be maintained by our good friend Marcelino from Swakop...

I would definitely suggest looking for this one from the river bed as there is quite a steep drop off if you approach it from above...

Additional Hints (Encrypt)

Halfway up a stone wall (cliff), look in the small opening, on what seems like a small shelf (behing a rock)
