Geocache Description:


Short Description

Unique hide near the sports park in Redcliffs. Please replace exactly as found.

Long Description

This cache replaces two others with a similar name. The first was placed one year after the September 4th 2010 Canterbury earthquake. This event and subsequent events on February 22nd and June 13th 2011 caused significant damage to the Port Hills closing the walking tracks that led up the valley from this park. We had originally planned to place this cache higher up the valley in the cave but this is still unlikely to happen any time soon.

This first cache site was destroyed when the council removed the bridge which the cache was attached to and widened the drain.

A new spot for the cache was located a little bit further up the valley on a second bridge with a fabulous view. Unfortunately the council have now removed this bridge too due to track upgrades.

This third cache keeps the “Hanging Around” theme but hopefully removes the possibility of council maintenance problems.

Please be aware of muggles when you are finding the cache and please replace exactly as found.
