Geocache Description:


The 12 Days of Cachemas (TDOC23) is a series of 78 caches, events and adventure labs placed across Victoria to celebrate Cachemas in July in 2023. The series is a joint initiative of Geocaching Victoria and the local community to release caches in a different category each day across the state. We hope you have as much fun finding this series, as we had placing them. Now on to the cache.

On the twelth day of Cachemas, Signal gave to me,
twelve trads a-hiding,
eleven multis staging
ten mysteries solving
nine letters boxing
eight gadgets tricking
seven TOTTs a-needing
six events meeting
five adventure labs
four active CITOs
three quirky challenges
two earthcaches
and a wherigo up in a tree

 

Ding dong! merrily on high
In heav’n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky
Is riv’n with Angel singing.

Gloria,
Hosanna in excelsis!

E’en so here below, below,
Let steeple bells be swungen,
And “Io, io, io!”
By priest and people sungen.

Gloria,
Hosanna in excelsis!

Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers;
May you beautifully rime
Your evetime song, ye singers.

Gloria,
Hosanna in excelsis!

===================================================================================

Plenty River Reserve is a very nice reserve beside the Plenty River and it has Plenty River Trail running through it.

You can travel on the Plenty River Trail from Dry Creek in the north end through to Banyule Flats at the south end.

If you have the time and the inclination it is a very pleasent walk or bike ride.

The Cache:-

You are looking for a standard regular sized cache.

It is a tree climb and you will most probably require a ladder.

Please take care and take into account the conditions and your own limitations.

Cache safely to maintain your own and everyone elses health and wellbeing.
