Geocache Description:

Valleys on the edge of PE

PLEASE NOTE: SOME SERIOUS RAIN FELL IN THIS AREA DURING JUNE 2011, AND IT'S THE WETTEST IT'S BEEN IN THE LAST 8 YEARS. SOME GEOCACHERS GOT SERIOUSLY STUCK ON THEIR WAY TO THIS CACHE, SO PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL AND RATHER TRY TO REACH THE CACHE ON FOOT OR ON A BIKE.
(See AndyT's log regarding getting stuck on their way to the cache)

ONCE I'VE VISITED THIS CACHE AND THE AREA IS SAFE FOR 4X4's AGAIN, I WILL REMOVE THIS WARNING.

To get to this cache, you'll need a 4wd vehicle.
Unless you know the area very well, you'll have to research the possible routes as there are a few different ways to get there.
Also be carefull of taking the wrong route as you will scratch your vehicle.
Where you arrive at the foot of the hill, you can either walk up, or drive up if your vehicle can make it.
DON'T MAKE NEW TRACKS!!! ONLY use existing tracks. On top of the hill, stop at the end of the track and walk the few hundred metres to the cache. There is a bike track close to the cache, only use it if you're on a bike, don't drive on the bike track with a 4 wheeled vehicle.

It's amazing to look around you and you just see valleys, but yet you're only about 3km from the closest neighbourhood.

In:
Plastic cricket ball
Plastic bear
