Wild Bull Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

CATONY: The cache has been burnt by the bushfires that have gone through the forest and I consider it too dangerous to bring people out here because of the risk of falling trees or branches so unfortunately it's time to archive this one.

Geocache Description:

Your 3rd stop through this interesting area.


This cache will bring you to the Wild Bull picnic area in the Cockerawombeeba Nature Reserve & is only about 150 metres from the suggested parking area near the beautiful wilson river which is a great spot to cool off in summer. To get to the cache you`re in for a bit of a bush bash but nothing too difficult & you`re looking for an ammo tin stocked with log book, pen & a bag of swaps..........please swap up not down. 

As always be aware of the typical australian bush hazards: snakes, ticks, spiders etc. Also I suggest you don`t attempt this cache during wind storms because of the danger from falling trees. 

With this cache & any of the others around this area please remember that mobile phone service is poor to non-existent.  

The use of spoilers:

The introduction of Social media to showcase caching activities is now starting to expand and I can see that over a period of time, more people will get involved and showcase their activities through this medium.

I believe that it takes away the experience that Geocaching offers. Tat for every person undertaking a cache hunt, it should be like they are the first to discover it. It is as much about the journey of finding the cache (working out the puzzle, thinking about where a cache might be hidden etc) as it is about finding the cache and racking up the numbers. Geocaching can take you to some beautiful and completely unexpected places. If someone has seen it on a Social media site, then the experience will no longer be a new experience.

It has been the reason why many people who have hidden caches check their logs regularly and remove spoiler images or logs. Geocaching is a controlled environment where the ownership and presentation is in the hands of the cache owner. The use of social media takes the ownership away from the cache owner and places it in the control of those working to discover the cache and present a story on an external medium. Once it has been presented on Social media, there is nothing a cache owner can do to remove it.

Geocaching is a game that everyone plays in their own way. The way Geocaching is set up means that every time a person finds a cache it is a new experience for them because they find it themselves and comment on their experience as a new finder, hopefully without a spoiler. After viewing a few spoiler reports on Social media and having to take action to remove spoiler activity presented in logs through Geocaching lately, I am requesting that this cache is not used for a Social media presentation. Please respect my request.
