Park at the parking coo-ords and follow the trail behind the house, do not enter the private property, this hut is listed on the Nature Trail brochure so you not trespassing to get the cache, please DO NOT attempt this cache at night as it is right behind the private property.

This hut was built during the 1980s by participants of a mud brick construction course and is surrounded by a variety of native shrubs. The woody shrubs with narrow flat leaves and forked tips are the Desert Cassia, (Senna artemisioides). They are very drought resistant. In bloom they have yellow flowers. The bushy plant close to the hut has short, hard, pointed, pale green leaves that conserve water. The Comb Spider- flower (Grevillea huegelii), has clusters of attractive red, tubular flowers when in bloom. Hard, woody capsules bear seeds and sometimes may be seen on the plant. Variegated Fairy-wrens visit because the Grevillea offers protection from predators. If you hear a high-pitched twittering you may see a blue-headed male.
