But You Cannot Make It... (Rotorua) Traditional Cache

A continuation of the mini series, with You Can Lead A Horse... in the lead, closely followed by But You Cannot Make It.... The leading pair are both Traditional Caches and bringing up the rear, Of Horses, Drinking and Stable Hands II, is a Field Puzzle.

The Old Taupo Rd Historic Horse Troughs, near Pererika St, are probably at, or near, their original location and were used to water stock and horses as they travelled along Old Taupo Rd, often to the Ngongotaha Saleyards (now the site of the NZMCA's private campground). The troughs are referenced in "Pumiceland Pioneers", (a book detailing the history of the early European settlement of Aotearoa, as experienced by the Martin and Ford families) as still being in use in 1929.

This cache is also a waypoint for Of Horses, Drinking and Stable Hands II.
