Umsizi: Hi batsgonemad and his squirrel

Due to no response after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival. This is explained in the Help Center.

If the CO feels that this cache has been archived in error please feel free to contact me within 30 days, via email or message via my profile ,quoting the GC number concerned

Geocache Description:

This used to be the main road from Durban to the interior. In the early days it was a mudslide in summer. A tollgate once operated at the crest of the hill. The funds raised went to pay for the hardening of Durban's roads. Berea Road
The cache is not located inside the block of flats or near the entrance.


The Toll House was opened in 1866 and the Toll Keepers name was Harry Bird. In the early 1900's the house was relocated to no 11 Kloof Falls Dr. There is little info on this Toll Gate so i doubt that i will find more information. Going through all the photos showed me the most incredible changes in Durbans history.

Only pin badges (hat badges) to be traded here please
