Ancient cottage Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Umsizi: Hi ForAnnie45

Due to no response after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival. This is explained in the Help Center.

If the CO feels that this cache has been archived in error please feel free to contact me within 30 days, via email or message via my profile ,quoting the GC number concerned

Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Ancient Cottage!

To find this geocache, you’ll need to enjoy a short hike. 
From the Coetzenburg parking area, follow the dirt road past the cricket fields and the Maties rock-climbing area. The road will climb steeply. At the top, take the first road to your right. After approximately 700 m, turn onto the road that comes in from the left. Continue along this road until you reach the cottage. This hike is approximately 3km from Coetzenburg. Alternatively, you may navigate directly using the coordinates.

You will need a PIN to open the cache. This PIN is located in a small, separate container attached to the main container. Please unclip the geocache container before opening it; otherwise, the cache contents may fall out. Also, do not pull on the rope.

Feel free to bring a picnic basket—there is a lovely bench and table nearby.

Hope you can catch the small hint of mathematics.

Please remember to return everything exactly as you found it.

Annie
