FX6694 (DNF)

I’d never been west of Mount White before. Never had any good reason to I guess, but I was quite surprised to notice there was a cache out this way, so TeamWolfie made their way here after lunching at Pie in the Sky, and discovering the Breathless cache.

We took Morgans Road out toward a place called Marlow which I’d never heard of before today to begin the hunt for another of GeoMonkeys‘ caches, FX6694 (GCK099).

After parking the car in a small parking bay near GZ we got out in the stifling summers heat to start our search, and took in some of the great views from this location where you can see the mighty Hawkesbury River snake through the valley below.

We managed to get right onto GZ – presuming our Mio Digiwalker was guiding us right, but sadly we could not find the cache today, nor could we find the item mentioned in the cache hint. Sadly our time was limited at this stage of the day so we had to abandon today’s search, although we’ll probably return soon.

  Sorry about the DNF. Had one this weekend too. I’m sure we were in the right place, but the wind and cold were just too much. Oh, well, next time.

  Yes, unfortunately the occasional DNF can’t be avoided. I had an uneasy feeling about snakes at this location too – it reminded me of the same type of place as our last snake fright, so it was a bit eerie.
