Billy Goat Bay Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Balayang: I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, Leerum & Franny, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

Geocache Description:

About 1 minutes drive north of Green Head on Coast Rd, take the dirt road marked Pt Louise, Billy Goat Bay, Milligan Island.
You can park at either Billy Goat Bay car parks, but the park signed "Boat Launching" is a shorter walk. There is also an unmarked road that takes you almost right to the cache.
Walk along the beach, the cache is on top of the first sand dune from the sea.

This area was once home to many squatters shacks, but they were torn down around 10-15 years ago. The cache is in the approximate location of my parents' shack where we spent a lot of good summers. My parents loved Green Head so much they now own a house in Green Head that you will drive past on your way to the entry road.
You can still see remnants of some shacks, such as concrete foundations and tin (we even found an old toilet). Please take care if you choose to walk through the sand dunes to check out the old shacks. There is still some wire and metal lying around, but there is none around the cache.
Cache is an ammo container hidden under some bushes. Take your time to wander & enjoy the serenity :)
