Geocache Description:

The kids have been learning about the solar system so we thought it would be a good opportunity to create a cache series

This series goes through the bush walk in the Harker Reserve

We would suggest you read all of the caches in the series before beginning

The entire walk is around 2km (60 - 90 minutes) each way and you can continue onto the waterfall as well

During the winter months parts of the track can get muddy

Basic Facts About The Sun

Distance from Earth: 150 million km
Diameter: 1.4 million km
Temperature: 6000°C at surface, 15 million °C at centre

The bonus cache in this series

The listed coordinates are bogus so don't go there

To find the coordinates you will need to visit the other caches in the series to gather the missing information

Coordinates are as follows:

S 37° 18.ABC E 174° 55.DEF

The cache is a 1L camo sistema container and should be easy enough to find. Large enough for trackables and swaps

All caches are within reach of the track. You will not need to jump fences or 'bush bash' to find them

There is a small FTF prize and some small swapables
