Geocache Description:


This is a cache that was created to be part of the Gauteng Power Series (GPS). The Gauteng Power Series (GPS) was created to offer Cachers the opportunity to achieve personal caching goals by using Grand Personal Selection (GPS) to decide how to hunt and find these caches, all in one day, or one by one over a period of time. Remember to Go Physically Safely (GPS) when you Grope, Peek and Search (GPS)


The caches hidden on this stretch of the GPS series are all close to busy roads, not recommended for small children. We tried to hide the caches keeping parking in mind as close to GZ as possible, but as always please rather be safe than sorry!

Voortrekker monument View

Parking is close to GZ
The road here leads to the entrance of the Voortrekker monument. Basically the main reason for errecting this monument was to honour a promise that was made to God by the Voortrekkers during the "Battle of Blood river". When searching for the Voortrekker monument on Google one gets more than 320,000 hits....
An interessting fact about it is that ontop of this monument is a strobe that to this day still in morse code display the message "Ons vir jou Suid Afrika/We for Thee South Africa"


A quick and easy roadside cache, should take less than a minute.
