Geocache Description:

Entrance along Altona Road. Short walk into the forest.

Entrance along Altona Road. Short walk into the forest. My father came with me to plant this cache.

The container is a rubbermaid container painted camouflage containing logbook and trinkets.

Sorry about the mosquitos. They have not relented all summer long. Take precautions for this find.

The cache has really moved locations since I initially stashed it. Given the heavy tree cover I doubt if the posted co-ordinates are fully accurate. I will recheck it in the winter once the leaves have fallen, and we can get the most accurate positioning. Until then, read previous posts and check the spoiler for hints.
