Andrel's Nautical Cache (Nelson/Marlborough) Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

MORDOR&ANDRE: Finally went for a wander up the Brook Stream and found that the cabbage tree that the cache was in has indeed gone, so time to archive this one. Cheers.

Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the published co-ordinates. The cache was placed by a friend of mine (another Andrew) who was visiting from Auckland. You will need to solve a simple puzzle to find the actual cache co-ordinates. You'll need to do a 1 hour return walk to get to the cache. You might get wet feet.

Cache is a 500ml screw top container. When placed the cache contained a variety of swaps, log book, pencil, sharpener and stash note. When you reach a fork you will have to get your thinking right before progressing upwards for 10 - 15m. Here are the old clues for free! Look up. Beside a large rock. Above a waterfall. FTF reported cache co-ordinates about 7 meters out but others since have been within 2 meters of cache.
