The uphill wander continued until Mrs Y'stassie reached the junction. She was busy looking at her GPS while working out which trail she should follow when she became aware that she was not alone. She started to look up and spotted her new companion about a meter up track from her. A medium sizes tiger snake, head pointed towards her had spotted her. Its tongue tested the air then it turned away and quickly crossed the trail, slithered down the bank and across the grassland below the track.
With a sigh of relief Mrs Y'stassie continued on until she spotted the object mentioned in the hint. After her recent encounter she was hesitant to leave the trail but as she was alone and there was no other way to reach the hide she bit the bullet and headed off. She gave the container a few hard bangs before poking around inside with her walking pole. After flicking the covering material aside with her pole she used the same skill to extract the container. Container and contents were in good condition. With every thing back in place she quickly returned to the trail.
Thanks for this cache and the excitement AlbyDangles. Its always a good reminder that we share our bush with many animals, snakes included, and that they are just as shy of us as we are of them.

Mrs W is still enjoying her walk to GZ. Silence only broken by trail bikes. At least you hear them! The bikes are silent. Happy New Year Alby. A nice series of caches and bonus points as well. TFTC
Continued up the shallow hill and got to a nice place for the cache.
