The location
On the crest of a hill above Silverstream you'll enjoy a great view of the Hutt Valley, the western hills and the Tararua Range.
Getting there.
The quickest route to this cache is to take a muddy track that starts outside the water tanks fence beside Climb Time. However it can be quite muddy and slippery, especially after rain. The alternative approach is through The Hidden Way, a little known path that contours around the hills above Silverstream, Upper Hutt. The Hidden Way is frequented and maintained by a few locals and, although short, is an enjoyable walk. In Geocaching tradition, please respect the vegetation and the track surface. Thanks.
Access
Park at the top of Duncraig Street and climb the steep hill to the A better route cache. Further up the sealed access road lies the entrance to The Hidden Way. To find it look for an old pine tree on the right, in view of the Water tanks by Climb Time. Skirt the gnarly trunk and begin the short trek to George Lupi: OMRI. Another 170 meters along the track another old pine on the right marks The Hidden Way: Pines and Needles cache.
The track soon joins a steep firebreak. Turn left and head up to the top of the hill.
