When
trading items please consider trading up or trading even and
leaving items that you would want to find. Trackables (geocoins and
travel bugs) are not tradeable items. Please feel free take them
without making a trade, but please leave a note in your log and do
log them online.
The cache is a large ammo
can located about 140 metres from the Mt Dale Campsite. It
contains the usual array of items - logbook, pencil, pencil
sharpener and assorted new swaps.
Mt Dale Campsite is the
sixth campsite heading south on the Bibbulmun Track. It is an easy
2.5 km walk (just follow the Bibbulmun Track markers) from the
nearest car-parking point on Mt Dale Road (see coordinates). It is
a really nice walk amongst the jarrah which takes about an hour
return. For those interested the opportunity is there to
camp. The campsite has a water tank (if not camping please bring
your own water), picnic table, three side shelter, toilet, tent
sites and a fire ring. Sheer luxury! Just don't forget the loo
paper!
Driving on the Bibbulmun
Track and in the area of this cache is not allowed. This is a
disease risk area and driving, particularly in winter, is believed
to contribute to the spreading of dieback. Also vehicles near
campsites are, sadly becoming associated with anti-social
behaviour. So please be considerate and don't spoil the experience
of others by driving near the campsite, instead Take 30 and have a
fun walk.
If you wish to make any comments please
post a log or email me. Please log your find in the cache and on
Geocaching.com. Please no hints or multiple logs, but please do
leave a photo or two. Phone a friend is allowed, but hopefully not
required.
