Geocache Description:

Can you survive the various Deathly Deathnesses that lurk around Red Hill?

All up you're looking at an approx. 3km walk around some trails at Red Hill, whilst visiting 9 Way Points.

I know what you're thinking "9 Way Points?!?  That's madness".  Well, if it was a normal multi-cache I'd agree.  I reckon it'd be like hitting the triple-20 on a dartboard over and over.  But this one is much more like catapulting a watermelon onto the side of a house - a lot easier and much more satisfying!

At all times you should be on trails, visiting a few interesting places.  However, if you're the kind of cacher who only navigates on straight lines, you won't have as much fun.

The terrain of 3 is simply for the length of the walk - there's nothing too tricky, but I wouldn't try to push a pram around. The difficulty is there, not because of the hide, but for each of the Way Points you have to hit. Who knows, maybe you're not too good at catapulting watermelons?

And here's the cartridge DeadlyDeathness


A few notes:
- If it asks you if you want to pick up an item, you don't need to find it - they are 'virtual' items to fill in the story
- Once at GZ, make sure you take a card
- Finally, if you want to do the cache, but don't have the appropriate technology, contact me, and I'll try to arrange a time to do it with you.
