Geocache Description:

A hop over the river, a skip (well, scramble) up the hill side and a clamber up a short rock face. Altitude: 144m

We think this is a pretty cool, little-known, easy to reach spot. The terrain rating reflects the hop and skip part of the cache... pretty easy (just a little bit of a dusty scramble after crossing the river) to get to within a few centimetres of the cache. But then take careful note of the altitude as the clamber bit gives it a bit of a higher rating for difficulty.

I've added a waypoint for the starting point where you can park at the top of Wilfred Road.

Oh, and one last note: baboons have been spotted in the area, so keep an eye out.

UPDATE: It seems the baboons have been a bit more of a problem than expected as the cache disappeared for a while. It has now been replaced. We don't recommend placing trackables in the cache in case it happens again.
