Geocache Description:

A slightly larger than average traditional cache a short distance from a road side 'water hole'

It seems to me that micro, nano and small caches are everywhere! Even regular containers are quite hard to find. Its has also been quite interesting in my travels to see how some quite small containers have been classified as regular.

Anyway, this container is - I think - a bit larger than the commonly found regular containers of today - even if it is a bit smaller than the historical definition of large.

Contents when replaced include a log book, pencil, pen and a bunch of hopefully interesting swaps.

It should be a fairly easy find, but it is not a park and grab. As its near the road, please take care of little ones and if its been wet it could be very slippery on the way to GZ.

GPS accuracy round here not that flash so... Keep to the centre of the gully / stream as much as you can, sidling around obstacles when necessary - I found the left side a bit easier for this. Cache will be on your right looking up the hill. Its definitely visible when you get within a few metres of it.
