The cache:
It's a simply cache near the road. At the coordinates you'll find a plate with some information.

Limestone at Teluk Kubang Baduk represents the oldest unit of Setual Formation. This limestone has partly been metarmorphosed by the granite intrusion that transformed it into marble. Erosion and solution of this rock surface that is controlled by the presence of fracture and joint planes have resulted in the formation of various shapes of pinnacles aligned at uniform height reflection the badding plane of the limestone. The Kubang Baduk limestone pinnacles are among those within the oldest limestone units in the region.
