Geocache Description:


In August 2020 work began on  the new 63km trail extension to the Clutha Gold Trail, it is designed for cyclists and would follow a "grade 2 easy" route providing riders with "variety and interest", between Lawrence and Waihola.

The trail already runs for 73km from Lawrence to Roxburgh (also at grade 2), where it joins a further trail network extending into Central Otago.

The trust estimated eventual use of the extension could be as high as 15,000 riders a year and it is due to open 2022.

I have been looking at the new sections of trails as they have been constructed and thinking these need some geocaches. I have made a start but hope others will join in the fun.


Quick puzzle to find the cache at S46 06.ABC E169 58.XYZ, the puzzle was based on a car passanger one day saying not to long now as we're passing the troll house, rather than toll building.

This might be fun for the little troll hunters who might have watched the 2016 kids movie;

A B= The budget for the movie was $AB5million

C = Justin Timberlake released the oringal song 'C******g!' How many words make up the song (as it is written on song cover)

X = In total how many Annie Awards and Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards was the film nominated for?

Y = How many Golden Globe Awards did the film win?

Z = Number of letters in the surname of the actor who voices the charater Poppy?


No pens or pencils placed in container at time due to size. Photo logs are not acceptable substitutes and these logs will be deleted.
