Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the GOLD COAST POWER TRAIL.

A joint initiative by a group of local Gold Coast cachers.

This cache is part of the GOLD COAST POWER TRAIL.

A joint initiative by a group of local Gold Coast cachers.


Each cache is themed on a critter indigenous to the Gold Coast.

Most of the containers are small golden cache tubes with a logbook only and should be easy to find.

However, each participating cacher has one hide which may be more difficult!

This cache is named after a native Gold Coast Mammal called the "Ringtail Possum".


From the Wikipedia Page.....

The Common Ringtail Possum (Pseudocheirus peregrinus, Greek for "false hand" and Latin for "pilgrim" or "alien") is an Australian marsupial. It lives in a variety of habitats and eats a variety of leaves of both native and introduced plants, as well as flowers and fruits. These dietary factors have, over time, aided burgeoning introduced (pest) populations in New Zealand. This possum also consumes a special type of faeces that is produced during the daytime when it is resting in a nest. This behaviour is called coprophagia and is similar to that seen in rabbits.

The cache is hanging around too.... and what was that about their poo?
