Duck Alley (Waikato) Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Butterfly_Lady: Sadly after 15 year's service, this cache has to go - it looks like the Council do not intend to replace the vital sign providing such informative detail on the local ducks.
The cache was aimed at encouraging learning, so without the sign, there is no point having the cache.
