Geocache Description:

Our 1st shot at hiding Cache

Cleve township was proclaimed on 6th March 1879.

This hill was said to be used by a Surveyor called Clindening to look over and plan what is now the township of Cleve

A competition was conducted in 1999 to ascertain the origin of this Hills', colloquial name “Ticklebelly Hill”. When was it named and who gave it the name? No solution was found for this name, although supposition was that “Similar to a person getting a nickname, it would be safe to surmise that a boast by the lads at the time, that they had taken a girl to Ticklebelly Hill. One old timer used to smirk like a Chesire cat whenever “Ticklebelly Hill was mentioned”. As he was born in 1903 his courting days were probably in the early 1920’s. It now has a more appropriate name

This hill is within walking distance of the town. Or you can drive to within metres of the cache.
Native plants flourish, common species in the area include a variety of mallee eucalypts and wattles, broombrush, emu bush, native apricot. Some of the wild flowers which bloom in spring include orchids, bluebells, daises and white helichrsum(everlastings). An endangered species the silver daisy bush has recently been discovered in this area.
There is a local project in place, Paved area noting past and present families from the district, a walking trail, with descriptions of the plants, so after enjoying the views, take time to have a look around, but please be careful not to destroy the plants. There is also a National Trust Agricultural and Folk Museum in Town, which is worth a look
