This cache is the replacement cache for the original Transport Trader, it has now been moved to the Suikerbosrand Nature Reserve.
The cache has a specific theme, being modes of transport. If you
are going to trade some swag, please can you trade types of
transport items only, anything from motorbikes to aeroplanes.
The Ammo Case is divided into two partitions, one for transport
swag and the other for the log book, visitor calling card container
and TB's.
The Suikerbosrand Nature Reserve covers an area of 11,595ha and
was named after the Transvaal Suikerbos, (Protea Caffra). The
reserve is within an hours drive of Johannesburg and lies close to
the town of Heidelberg. The main feature of the reserve is the
Suikerbosrand Mountain Range that forms the backbone of the reserve
and varies in height between 1,545m and 1,917m above sea level.
The list of mammals to be found in the reserve is quite long and
includes Eland, Zebra, Black Wildebeest, Red Hartebeest and Brown
Hyena.
A network of 66km of backpacking hiking trails have been
established, plus a short, 4km long interpretive trail (Cheetah
Trail) and a 17km (10km shorter option, Bokmakierie) day visitor
trail. There is also a 60km long motor vehicle tourist route.
