ADVANCED WARNING (20 May 2025):
Commencing in April 2026, we will start to archive many of our caches as the maintenance load is becoming a major concern as our capacity to make regular visits to our caches declines. The date has been chosen so that, apart from unforeseen circumstances, all of our caches will be available to those visiting Tasmania for the Tassie Event in early March 2026. We are giving advanced notice so that all have the opportunity to look for any of our caches that they haven't found before they are archived. This is one of the caches we plan to archive.
This cache is one of two puzzles in the fifteenth stage of an ongoing structured program to introduce inexperienced cachers to solving mystery or puzzle caches. Each of the puzzles is designed to reinforce the ideas explored in the previous session. The full rationale for creating the "Starting Puzzle Solving" series can be found in the preamble to
- GC8JDKY Starting Puzzle Solving 01A
- GC8JDM0 Starting Puzzle Solving 01B
Experienced cachers should find these puzzles quite straightforward and are most welcome to solve them and find the caches - they are not restricted to those participating in the program.

There are some definite rules applying to Geocaching and there are some common expectations.
Some of the expectations are contained in the Geocachers’ Creed:
When placing or seeking geocaches, I will:
- Not endanger myself or others.
- Observe all laws & rules of the area.
- Respect property rights and seek permission where appropriate.
- Avoid causing disruptions or public alarm.
- Minimize my and others’ impact on the environment.
- Be considerate of others.
- Protect the integrity of the game.
Other expectations are explained in the video Geocaching Etiquette. Have you seen the video? You may learn something new about this great activity.
After having reminded ourselves of these expectations, there is a cache to find. However before you can find the cache and sign the logbook, you must break the following code.
