Geocache Description:


The Quail

The Quail  Track connects the the Bellbird track and the Railway Embankment track, it provides an alternative route back to the carpark, but the not going to help you because you have to go down so far to the cache, then double back to the Bellbird track, to get the rest.

 

Car Park S44.45.383  E171.01.372

The cache is a 550ml snaplock container it has log book pen and a few swap.

And of course the number.

Take note of the number in the log book, this is one of 5 cache's in the area, each has a number in the log book,that will help you  the find the Waimate Bonus Cache. if doing all the cache the best way is to start with the Railway Embankment, then The Water Fall, then The Quail it's the only Double-Back you have to do of about 200m, then the  Bellbird then the  Ngaio, and then if you have all the number's go and  find the Waimate Bonus Cache.

The whole track took me 4.5 hours including setting out the caches, if you follow the order above then it's a big loop.
