Geocache Description:

I have named this Series “Dry Weather Drive” and after you locate the caches you will understand why. You DO NOT need a 4WD, but I strongly suggest you do not attempt them if it is wet.

.
No. 2 in my series, you will find the information to DWD#1 written on the front of the log book.

This area is on an incline that although it does not feel very steep, continues for some distance. The cache name comes for the Steam train era, where due to the long incline the steam engines were forced to add extra fuel to the boilers, this was often the cause of sparks which would fly out and land in the tinder dry grass alongside the tracks. I can remember my father and grandfather being called out to fight fires started by the trains.
