In the Silvermine section of the Cape Peninsula National Park, with
a spectacular view over Hout Bay of the Sentinel. A pleasant
morning or afternoon's hike, but check the mountain cloud cover if
you wish to appreciate the view.
The cache is located in the Silvermine section of the Cape
Peninsula National Park. From the Silvermine parking lot it is
about 40 minutes along tracks and footpaths to within 50m of the
cache. The cache is located on a shoulder overlooking Hout bay and
the Sentinel. On a fine day it is a magnificent site. On the day
the cache was stashed, the area was covered in cloud, with
visibility about ten metres. The cache is under a triangular
boulder about 1m by 1m in size, with a few smaller rocks packed
against it to keep out foraging baboons and porcupines. [Update
