Geocache Description:

This cache is placed to celebrate the prune (sometimes euphemistically referred to as a "dried plum") and other fruit.

We're sure you'll find this cache a fruitful experience. (But avoid spoilers please.)

The co-ordinates above are not the cache coordinates- although Sullivans Dam has a lovely walk around it, and plain water is a healthy drink. To find the cache you will have to solve a simple and nutritious puzzle. Once in the orchard, relax and trust the easy terrain rating.



Although we acknowledge that you also have to eat your vegetables to be healthy, in our opinion vegetables count for nothing in this cache. Botanists are sure to find this cache easily but sorry, cooks, your culinary talents won't help you much.


South coordinates:
