From: (visit link)

Those travelling between Queenstown and Derwent Bridge will cross this well-known wilderness river on their way. Plan a rest stop here and enjoy the tranquility of water and rainforest.

Highlights
The Franklin is one of the best known of the many rivers that run through the Wild Rivers National Park. This walk along the banks of the Franklin and through an example of the cool temperate rainforest that is widespread throughout the park will give you an idea of the beauty that lies within the heart of this wild river wilderness.

The Franklin itself was at the heart of the largest conservation battle in Australian history when environmentalists fought to save the river from being dammed.

Along the walk you will find interpretation signs that detail some of the many values of this magnificent region.

******************************************************************
As per Sol de lune's log in November 2009, the cache was found by a Parks and Wildlife Service Officer who said........"Found your cache today and decided there is no problem leaving it here, however please make sure it is covered up and not so obvious when you leave......."

Sol de lune have graciously created a little 'hidey hole' for the cache to sit in where the clue says it should be, and have covered it with a bit of newish fire wood. Please ensure you replace the cache in this hidey hole and cover it well - thanks heaps
