Geocache Description:


RKC

The listed co-ordinates will not take you to the final hide. You first need to work out a puzzle to get the final co-ords.

The grass and brush has been burnt off and so the final hide is easily accessible. This won't be the case after the first rains arrive.  This is a popular road for cyclists, pedestrians, horse riders and other motorists.

PLEASE BE VIGILANT AND AWARE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY!

Watch out for muggles!!

I found this dam by accident.  I have lived in the area for the first 26 years of my life, and yet I did not know about these quaint dams. 

While driving around with my young Paddawan driver (Learner's Licence acquired) we found this spot.  I told him at the time "I must hide a cache here".  And so I have!

To get the final co-ords:

(Google will be your friend, unless you're a birder and have your own Roberts bird guide, and it is with you! Apparently, it seems the much older Robert's does not have the required number. So you'll need the number that starts with a 2 )
