Geocache Description:

Another cache by Team Ladava with a panorama for desserts.

Please DO NOT try to access this cache from the freeway.

Try to ensure you visit this cache on a clear day with a breeze to blow away the smog from the city for the best vista.

The view from the shoulder of Burkes Hill has a wonderful panoramic view of what we believe is the second largest city in the world by area, Greater Melbourne. On a really good day you will be able to see the sails of the yachts on Port Phillip Bay.

Better still, return at night for a fabulous view of the city lights from our favourite vantage point that is quiet, easily accessible and has minimal light pollution for maximum magical sparkle. On really clear nights you will make out the sweep of lights around the bay toward
the heads.

We are in debt to chewinprickles for an additional point of interest at this location we hadn't noticed although I think that is the whole idea.
'A very interesting pencil pine at the phone exchange on the corner. I think it's official name is plasticpencilpineus radiata.'

PLEASE, DO NOT attempt to U turn at the cache location but continue over the hill to utilize a much safer, unofficial turning circle near Chewinprickles ‘pencil pinus’.

Enjoy.

Upgrade February 2008

This cache was lost to muggles during the school holidays and has been relocated with a different design.
You are now looking for a camouflaged 500ml screw top plastic container with a pencil, notebook and a range of small swaps.
