This cache is about some diggers who went off to find some adventure on the other side of the world, sadly few returned. The cairn that Stamford Simpson built in memory of his mates can be seen on the hill to the south.
In recognition of the efforts of those who fought in the Great War this cache is a bit harder than normal.
The information required to find the coordinates for the cache is available at the sign at GZ.
