Haunts of Coot Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

George Montague: Another exercise binge today.
Alas the cache has disappeared. If it has been removed from here, far from where children roam, it must have been deliberate.
Sadly, have decided not to replace it, so it can go the way of many others on Mt Coot-tha, into the archive bin. Thanks to all those who took the effort to work it out, and to take the even bigger effort to visit.

Haunts of Coot



Alfred, Lord Tennyson wrote "I come from haunts of coot and hern..." but never explained that a 'hern' is really a heron.

He went on :

I steal by lawns and grassy plots,

I slide by hazel covers;

I move the sweet forget-me-nots

That grow for happy lovers.

Which in an enigmatic way foretold of the future sport of geocaching.

Also enigmatic is the following clue which you must solve to find the location of the first waypoint, where you may find the details for the cache location.

Is it as easy as 123? yes!
