Geocache Description:

small container. Originally contains log book & pencil along with some Canadian, Singapore, and Russian coins (change not trackables).

We placed this cache in a rare Australian Drop Bear nesting area. Some people might think this would make the cache a little dangerous, but really Drop Bears hardly ever eat people. Official statistics show only three and a half people are eaten by drop bears each year. The half person is usually the result of the miniature drop bear of Tasmania.



You should be quite safe if you travel in groups and smear your bodies in Vegemite to repel the Drop Bears. Listen for the cries, which sound a lot like a kookaburra, and look up in the branches to make sure you do not walk directly underneath them. With these precautions you should be perfectly safe.



Contrary to popular misconceptions, Drop Bears are not really bears at all, but rather giant carnivorous marsupials. Koalas are really immature Drop Bears and are not normally found in the wild of WA
