GPS - Hollow Tree Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

JPMZA: Due to the ongoing COVID19 pandemic I have relocated and have not been able to maintain this geocache. Initially I expected to be away from Gauteng for a short period of time, but as we are no longer working from my physical office location in Gauteng and there is no short term prospect of the situation changing I am no longer based in Gauteng and therefore I am not in a position to restore the cache.

Geocache Description:

This is a cache that was placed as 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)!

This cache is part of the Gauteng Power Series and is placed along the Krugersdorp - Pretoria Road R114.

Please make sure that you stop in a safe place, be aware of oncoming traffic and obey all traffic laws while hunting for the GPS caches.


Be on a look out for muggles at all times and place the cache back exactly as you found it.


Please bring your own pen!


I love hollow trees. They remind me of my youth when we used to play in a large hollow willow tree on the banks of the Mooi river in Potchefstroom, North West. Therefore I am commited to keep a cache hidden here. The original cache was a small, but after being muggled I am going to try and see whether a micro container lasts longer. The previous hide near the old tree went missing again. With my most recent maintenance visit to this location I have sadly seen that the entire old tree has been cut down at ground level. I then moved the cache to a nearby clump of younger trees. After that a razor wire fence was erected between the road and the trees. I have now hidden the small micro container at the bottom of one of the fence posts of the new fence. Opportunity in adversity.
