Pierces Creek is a settlement in the Australian Capital Territory. The ACT government agreed to redevelop this rural settlement in 2003. In 1991, a bushfire destroyed $1.5 million worth of pine trees at Pierces Creek. Twelve of the original 13 homes at the settlement were destroyed during the 2003 Canberra bushfires.
The cache is accessible from the Hardy Range fire trail, this location offers excellent views over the Pierces Creek area. There is a trigpoint at the top with views to the Cotter Dam.
