Geocache Description:

Thanks to Boxhill for initiating the Curse of the FTF (Wellington) series of caches, with this cache being the 22nd in the series.

The rules are really simple.... Guidelines for this series are below:

1. FTF'er should place the next cache in the series (in this case, Curse of the FTF #23 (Wellington) within one month. Please note only the FTF'er should place the next cache and not every time someone finds the cache.

2. You can only be a FTF for this series once, and no joint FTF's accepted on these caches. This spreads the FTF love around, and gives others a chance to play along. (This is at least till everyone has had a go at FTF who wants to).

3. Cache can be any size or type of cache (Puzzle, Multi, etc.), but I do ask that you set it within the Greater Wellington Area (Wellington, Hutt Valley, Wainuiomata, and Kapiti Coast up to Waikanae), and if it is a puzzle then it cannot be too hard, as it should be easy enough for everyone to find.

4. You must include this set of guidelines in your listing for the series. I will be happy to answer any questions concerning the guidelines or about the placing of caches to those who have not placed a cache before. There is no requirement besides the standard signing of the cache log to prevent you from logging this cache when found. Everyone should log their find, and hopefully the FTF person will play along and place the next cache, but it is no way a requirement for logging your find. If you don't intend to carry on the series please do not FTF and leave it for someone else. Under Geocaching guidelines while there is no requirement for the FTF to place a new cache within a month, it is hoped that future FTF'ers, if they so wish, will enter into the spirit of the series, and continue to place new caches.

REMEMBER. NO JOINT FTF'S ACCEPTED ON THESE CACHES!!

You are looking for a camo one litre sistema box hidden just off the Colonial Knob track.

When hidden cache contained:
Log book
Pencil
Some swaps
FTF prize

Take a few minutes to look at the view, and if you have the time and energy carry on up to the top. There are several tracks you can take, and all of them have a Cache or two.
Please rehide cache carefully as it is near a track and we don't want it Muggled.
