Geocache Description:

In a reserve, adjacent to the 3rd hole of the TTG golf course

The original Tea Tree Gully golf course was located at Vista.
There were 9 holes, some of which criss-crossed each other. The first 18 hole layout was completed mainly by voluntary labour in 1952. In 1956 a larger clubhouse was built and members were asked to contribute an extra 10 shillings or a bag of cement. In 1958 the club bought the present property for twenty thousand pounds and again with a lot of voluntary help, the 18 hole course was ready for playing in July 1959. Extensive development of the course and clubhouse facilities has occurred since that time to create one of South Australia’s finest golfing and social locations.

In the same reserve that this cache is hidden is a fenced off area which has one of only six sites in northern Adelaide where the Silver Banksia still exists. At the time of European settlement Silver Banksia woodlands were commonly found along the Mount Lofty Ranges. This area is cared for by bushcare volunteers and you do not need to go into this area.

This is one of 3 caches located in reserves around and adjacent to the TTG golf course.
All 3 can be found by walking or bike riding around the course. You can walk around the outside of the course in about a half an hour, but you will need additional time to find the 3 caches. You should not go into the golf course to find any of the 3 caches.

The 3rd hole (par 3) 204m
From the easiest, to arguably the most difficult hole. Bunkers on both sides of the three tiered green make it a very demanding tee shot. The only safe place other than on the green is short.
Alternatively if you slice the ball about 250m on a 45 deg angle you can reach the cache.
