Geocache Description:


Watching the Dark

A cool wee location this. Well worth a walk through the nearby exhibit. You may prefer using a torch, but I'm quite happy in the dark - you won't need the torch to hunt the cache though. GPS coverage wasn't great, so I would recommend taking the hint, and being prepared to use it.

Overall Difficulty: The container is visible from >5m if you know where to look.

Terrain Difficulty: Most of the terrain is easy. There is a climb involved at the end, it may be difficult in wet weather.

Container: The container is a 1.3L snap-lock rectangular container. It contains only a logbook initially, there is room for a number of smaller items if you are inclined :)

Risks: Beware of the following: -

  • The dark - mwahahahaha
  • Slippery slopes
  • Walking into the light ;)

Good Luck!
