Geocache Description:


This cache would be a traditional, if only GZ had decent satellite reception - but it's in a gorge, and it's under trees and near cliffs so...

To find this cache, you need to visit the published coordinates (located on a rock in the middle of the stream +/- about 6 metres) - that will be enough of a mission for most - and then perform an offset: ~15 metres at approx 250 degrees magnetic.

Difficulty rating is based on how hard it would be to find with no more information than the description above, but if you use the provided spoiler image and the hint, then it hopefully shouldn't be too hard to find.

This cache may be difficult (and possibly dangerous) to get to after a lot of rain, but mostly should be ok. The cache doesn't require canyoning to get to, but please do take care and make sure you have an escape plan.

Don't bother using your GPS for the offset - if that was going to work, this cache would be a traditional. The best we could get at GZ was +/- 17m.

FTF!!! kiwicouple
