WEGT #1 - It's cold in these parts! Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

plowfive: We have unfortunately decided to archive this cache. The cache has gone missing and whilst we have a spare, it needs repair and is not fit to be put in play.

Mrs P (our cache builder) has been seriously ill, and has completed her treatment but is currently still immunocompromised so now is not the time for getting her hands dirty, splintered etc etc repairing or making replacement caches.

We plan to keep the rest of the series going until each cache is damaged beyond repair or needs repair when we aren't able to do it.

Maybe one day in the future if she is well and feeling up to it, we could place a new cache to replace this cache in the series. A WEGT #1 Take 2 hopefully!

Thanks to everyone that has done this cache, we really have appreciated your logs and hope it brought some joy & fun to your travels.

Geocache Description:


The WEGT (Whittlesea Event Gadget Trail) series, is a series of family friendly Gadget caches, placed for the Whittlesea Event 2022 (19th-20th November 2022 – GC8EW40). The trail may expand over time, so keep your eye out for new additions.

The City of Whittlesea is very large, covering 490sq kms and many suburbs, including the urban areas of Whittlesea township, Epping, Lalor, Mill Park, South Morang, Mernda and parts of Doreen and Bundoora. It also includes the rural areas of Donnybrook, Eden Park, Humevale, Kinglake West, Wollert, Woodstock and parts of Beveridge and Yan Yean.

Most of the caches in this series will be easy to find but slightly harder to open.

They will all be simple field puzzles with a different trick to open each one.

Please be gentle with each cache, we want them to last for others to enjoy. They will open easily when you apply the correct technique.

Ensure to reset the cache to its locked state before leaving, so it is ready for the next team to enjoy.

Watch out for snakes in the hotter weather.

Most importantly, we hope we add a smile to your day. smiley
