After a recent cache hunt with some fellow ,cachers, I again realized what a great walk this is. Yes, its a walk in the park compared to some other routes on Table Mountain, but hey not everybody needs that adrenaline rush when out on the mountain. This is the perfect walk for those who just want to get out there. Yes, it is a linear route, but in Cape Town the views there and the view back is completely different.
At the moment the pipetrack also promises a few caches for the novice geocacher. Depending on how fit you are or how far you want to walk, as it stands if you reach this cache you should have eleven caches in hand and would have walked between 3-3,5kms, remember you still have to walk back. Continue all the way to "GCNWT3 - Oudekraal April Fool" and you could bag twenty for the day.
Sadly though, I would suggest you walk in a group of at least two or more, no matter where you are its never advised walking alone. Also be sure not to leave any valuables visible in your car. Be sure you've closed all windows (unlike me) and lock your vehicle.
I use caching as an excuse to get out more, I suggest you do the same. As much as we enjoy finding the cache and earning another smiley, don't forget to enjoy the journey, enjoy the walk there and take in the splendour of Table Mountain.

Caching 101
When you find the cache, sign the logbook and return it to the cache. You can take an item from the cache if you like - just make sure to leave something of equal or greater value in its place. When you are finished, put the cache back exactly as you found it, even if you think you see a better spot for it. Finally, visit the cache page to log your find and share your experience with others.
