Kororoit Creek Walk - Hanging Around

Head off the concrete path to the banks of the creek where you will seek a black bison tube. If you haven't guessed from the fact that it's a bison tube you have surely cottoned on by the name that you are looking for a hanger. Dang! I hate those in green, leafy trees. But if I hate them, then why would I hang one? Maybe it's not in a green leafy tree. Maybe, just maybe, if you're luck you can spot it as you walk up to it and even if you can't the hint will remove your frustration. Geocaching is about finding geocaches not being irritated by a someone trying to be clever.

About Kororoit Creek
The Kororoit Creek rises below Mount Kororoit, northeast of Melton in the north western outer suburbs of Melbourne. The creek's headwaters are north of Sunbury at approximately 400 metres (1,300 ft) above sea level in Ordovician geology. The creek flows generally south by east and passes over the volcanic lava plain of western Melbourne to its mouth at sea level, north of Altona and emptying into Altona Bay within Port Phillip. The creek is joined by one minor tributary as it descends approximately 407 metres (1,335 ft) over its 52-kilometre (32 mi) course. At the outlet in Altona Bay, the creek winds its way through the Altona Coastal Park and then the Jawbone Marine Sanctuary Park, where it enters Port Phillip.
From east of Sunbury, the Kororoit Creek makes its way down through many suburbs towards its mouth, including the towns and suburbs of Rockbank, Caroline Springs, Burnside, Kings Park, Albanvale, Deer Park, Cairnlea, West Sunshine, Ardeer, Albion, Brooklyn and Altona North.
The creek is traversed by the Melton Highway, east of Melton; the Western Highway and the Western Ring Road, at Ardeer; and the West Gate Freeway and Federation Trail at Brooklyn. The Kororoit Creek Trail runs along the banks in the lower reaches of the creek.
