Geocache Description:


Yes, this is a micro, in a tree, halfway up a mountain. It isn't too hard though. 

A cache placed in a scree field along the track up Drys Bluff. At the coordinates there is a Eucalyptus tree which you will have to climb (no climbing gear required or anything, it is fairly easy). The cache is a micro with a logbook only. 

Good luck, and hopefully this extra cache will inspire you to go the whole journey up to the other one, Drys Bluff

Access:
Follow the Liffey Falls signs from the Bass Highway near Carrick. You will make a right turn in the middle of Bracknell then another right turn at a T-Junction near the old Liffey School. Soon after this, you cross the (Tellerpanger) Liffey River as you enter bushland. 1.6km past this bridge, look for a driveway heading down to a small bridge and a white weatherboard house. You need to park out on the road (P) and follow the driveway up to the house. The driveway is marked on the GoogleMap. From the house, you head straight uphill to where a creek emerges from the bush. You cross the creek on a bridge and the walking track becomes more obvious after you enter the bush. The track to the trig is well worn & easy to follow. The true summit requires some scrub bashing across the plateau; it helps to stay close to the edge of the escarpment on top. Around 3 to 4 hours up and 2 to 3 hours down The spectacular dolerite rock formations are close to half way up. This is a great rest spot and the first spot where the views really start to open up. Whatever time it takes to reach these is usually about half the time it will take to reach the closer northern peak.

Congratulations bella at waggy for your FTF!
