Geocache Description:


The cache is located on the track from the Crown Saddle to Tuhoys Saddle. It is a 6 hour walk starting from the Crown Saddle Carpark that follows the ridgeline along to Mt Allen, then along to Tuhoys Saddle via Quartz Knoll and Queensberry Hill.

Starting from the carpark at the Crown Saddle, the track leads up the hill to Rock Peak. There are great views all around from up there, looking to Queenstown, Gibbston Valley and beyond.

The cache is located at about 1450m above sea level and is very exposed to the elements. Anyone attempting this cache needs to be well prepared for tramping and prepared for sudden changes in weather.

Make sure you take your camera as the views are fantastic!

The cache is a 1L container containing all the usual stuff.
