Grass Tree Rock
Some days you find 10 geocaches, others you just find 1. Today was a 1-cache day, a nearby one I’d really love to get ticked off my list – an ideal thing to do after work on a Monday afternoon.
Grass Tree Rock (GCPQDA) is a cache by Cache On Demand located in the hilly green belt linking the Rumbalara and Katandra Reserves that separate Gosford township from the coastal residential areas of the Central Coast. On looking at the map we identified three, or maybe four ways to get to this cache. We decided on the day to approach from Clyde Road from the east.
On arrival, the very steep uninviting track made me wonder whether I should have checked a topo map first, and as we made our way to the cache it became obvious we SHOULD have come from Toomey’s Road (i.e. from the north) for the easiest approach. We’ll know next time! It was quite a warm pleasant day, and I like to get a little exercise, so the steep climb was more an inconvenience than a barrier.
Yet again we’re treated to a new and interesting place which we otherwise would never have visited. The cache had many treasures, though we decided to place the travelbug we’d collected two days prior from Bumble Along and just sign the log.
Another cool find in a cool location – which is temporary home to a pretty cool travelbug car.
TFTC!
