Point Nepean Night Cache - Coles Track Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

Bunjil: I cannot see any information that suggests to me that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement - one or more of the following applies:

             - Cache Owner unable to maintain cache 
             - No response from the cache owner.
             - No cache to find or log to sign.
             - It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
             - Cache has been abandoned by cache owner/cache in disrepair

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email and include GC number in cache name) and, assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

If there are components or remnants of the cache and you haven't already done so, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Sad to see this one disappear - but there you go! [:(]

Geocache Description:

Point Nepean Night Cache - Coles Track

This is a simple two stages multicache, however it is a Night Cache with a twist.

The single Yellow Reflector is the important one in each stage that you will need to find. It is hidden close to the track.The stage boundaries are defined by obvious reflectors that are above head height and clear of obstructions.

Start of Stage: White Reflector with Orange stripes

End of Stage: White Reflector, there is one on each side of the trail.

The single Yellow Reflector in each stage is also on a tree above head height, at the base of this tree is a plate that contains the xxx or yyy seconds that your require for GZ.

At the posted coordinates you will find yourself on Coles Track. Your mission will see you entering the Easterly Coordinates Stage first, followed shortly thereafter by the second stage which is the Southerly Coordinates Stage.

From the listed coordinates head west along the Coles Track, you will soon find a White Reflector with Orange stripes which signifies the beginning of the stage, continue along the trail keeping your eyes peeled for the elusive Yellow Reflector. There is only one of these in each stage. When you find it make your way to the tree and look for the plate at its base of the tree. There are a few reflectors here low down to assist finding the plate that contains numbers xxx, write these down.. they are important..

Continue along the path until you pass the White Reflectors (one on each side of the trail) which signify the end of this stage.

If you find two White Reflectors and you haven't found the Yellow one then return along the trail where you came from being more observant this time.

Otherwise if you have the easterly xxx coordinates, then continue heading west on this Coles Track.

NB: This listing contains a WP at the mid point between where the East Stage finishes and the South Stage starts, aswell as at the far end of Coles Track.

This Southerly Stage is the same as the Easterly however the Yellow Reflector contains the yyy coordinates you require for the Southerly Coordinates for GZ. If you get to the two White Reflectors you have gone too far.

Once you have found both Yellow Reflectors and corresponding Coordinate Plates. Then enter these as follows to find GZ at:

S 38° 18.yyy E144° 39.xxx

The Cache is a nice sized Amo Tin.

The FTF prize is a FTF TB that I found in Iamapom's GC2N6YD Cache. (I already have one which I purchased from Iamapom's online shop)

The FTF Geocoin prize TB3YKP3 was won by Oakydog.

This is both my first Multi and my first Night Cache, feedback most welcome. Enjoy..
