Geocache Description:

This is the 3rd cache in a short series around St Helen's Wood and its surrounds.  It is a Difficulty-5 cache and designed to be highly entertaining when you find it.  There are 16 separate pieces of material that went into the construction of this cache.  So don't give up... it will be worth it

The container is LARGE.  In fact, you are looking for a container that is nearly 3 feet long (almost 1 metre).  It is well disguised and blends in incredibly well with its environs.  So how do you navigate under the trees around here?... well here's a little tip, look for a small opening in the canopy.

Access to GZ is along the main path in St Helen's Wood.  Towards the end of the path as you head west, the path forks in two.  You need to follow the south-most fork (the left one)... and then turn off the path-proper onto a leaf-covered woodland trail just before Lamp-post #3.  At this point you are about 20 metres away from GZ. 

Now here's the thing... once you locate GZ you will still be 10 metres away from signing the log

There is an unactivated geocoin as a FTF prize.

Good hunting!

Trivia:  GZ is located 161 metres from the previous cache in the St Helens Wood series (#2).  Refer to any of the Blackrock Power Trail caches for the significance of "161 metres".
