This cache is located in Athol.
Named after Harry Athol who owned the first hotel there, Athol, which is situated alongside the Mataura River, is reputed to provide the best Brown Trout fishing ground in the world.
While predominately a farming area, it is increasingly supporting a guiding and hospitality industry.
Between 1991 and 1993, with the support Department of Conservation volunteers, tutors and local families, a length of dry stone wallling was erected in the township.
The aim was to highlight a technique used by goldminers and farmers in earlier days. In the Athol area, these walls were mainly built by miners to support water races and for small buildings.
