This cache is the first of 61 puzzles in the shape, all fairly easy with no tricky stuff. Most of the finals are close to the inlet, with a few thrown further afield to fit them in. Many of the puzzels types have been repeated to help minimise frustration and to keep in theme, and any web-based information gathering is always from a single site (for the respective puzzle types).
Originally the containers were all identical (small pill containers) bar one (you'll see) but a number have now changed as maintenance is undertaken to look after the trail. The hides are all fairly basic.
There are a number of fantastic walkways, parks, cafe's and beaches in the area. For those from further away we recommend staying a night or two to take it in, and not turn it into a geo-frenzy.
If anyone spots an error, or sees some field maintenance required feel free to assist or contact the respective new CO so they can investigate and repair. A few may suffer from storms.
You will note that there are a few nearby puzzles from other players, a couple of which fit into either the shape or the cache pattern or both. These are not part of the shaped geotrail itself, but are recommended as well.
A number of caches are placed near roads. These often have significant traffic, so please be careful. Also - a number of caches are in full view of muggles. Use all your well honed caching skills and any misdirection to be super stealthy.
