Geocache Description:

A five-step multi-cache with a puzzle and offset awaits you – created for the “Hamilton Summer Celebration” caching event in November 2006, this cache involves some tricky hides, so expect the unexpected!

FREE HINT! None of the hides for this cache are in a flaxbush, so don't search them!


Resthills park is a quiet sports park in the South West of Hamilton City. Enjoy a ramble through the park and surrounds with this cache.

The published waypoint points to the first stage. You can drive up, or park at the parking waypoint and walk to all points from there. You will walk around 1km of mostly level country from this spot. Each intermediate cache has a wad of tear-off pages, with the clue for the next step, or an attached note you need to read and record the details from. (Please let me know in your log if any of the tear-off the pages are about to run out).

After a trail of lost final boxes over 2 years (after being in place 12 years) the final is now a black bison tube hanging up high to make it less obvious to muggles - but there is a geocaching.com sign at face height on the same tree to assist you.

Note the parking area gate is closed sometimes at night - park on the street after dark.
