Geocache Description:


The posted co-ordinates are a good place to park and start your Descent into Hell. Hellhole Gully is the exposed remnants of an old Volcano. As you continue along the track you will see signs giving you more information about this topic. I recommend reading them and learning a little more about the geology of the area. Also, the nearby Earthcache, GC4AM9N, is recommended to do as you go along.  

This multi cache covers over 2km horizontally and over 200m vertically taking you down to the creek at the bottom of Hellhole Gully. Allow approximately 2-3 hours to complete this multi. There are 8 way points you will need to visit, in order, to gather information to calculate the next way point and eventually the final cache location.

Also note that there is NO phone / data coverage at the last couple of way points. A GPSr is recommended for this multi cache.

Do not attempt this cache in the rain or after heavy rain storms as you will be travelling along creek beds.
