Geocache Description:

The kids have been learning about the solar system so we thought it would be a good opportunity to create a cache series

This series goes through the bush walk in the Harker Reserve.

We would suggest you read all of the caches in the series before beginning

The entire walk is around 2km (60 - 90 minutes) each way and you can continue onto the waterfall as well

During the winter months parts of the track can get muddy

Basic Facts About Pluto

You will need some of these for the clues
Distance from Sun: 5914 million km
Diameter: 2284 km
Time taken to orbit the sun: 249 Earth years
Time taken to spin once on axis: 6.4 Earth days
Moons: 1

This is the first cache in the series

Find the clues to the bonus cache (The Sun) hidden in some of the caches in the series

Please be careful getting this cache as it is on the side of a very busy road

Cache container is a 140ml green tube and should be easy enough to find. There is enough room only for the log so please bring a pen

All caches are within reach of the track. You will not need to jump fences or 'bush bash' to find them
