Description

Cache is a small black screwtop with bison tube and biro .

An interesting spot you would think unlikely on the Gog Range.

The pools are around 200m in length and surrounded by dense scrub,

Take notice of the forest change as you travel east...getting noticeably wetter with pockets of myrtle etc,

Access is along a 4wd track which starts off the junction of Gog Road and Union Bridge Road @ S41 29.579  E 146 21.186

The track initialy goes up through a recently logged coupe then back into native forest. Stay on the track south as it passes the turnoff up to the Gog trig pt., then take the track east at the next junction.

Stay on this main ridgeline track all the way to gz.

For those with 4wd you can easily get to and park at S41 30.306  E146 21.876 where the cache is an easy walk of 1hr return. I don't reccommend proceeding further as the track has a severe washout about 200m further on with poor turning ability. If you proceed further its at your own risk.

For those without 4wd it will be a 3.5 hr plus return walk.

Enjoy the trek!

Today Trimbletas and I had a action packed day of caching planned. We started by doing some caches around Ulverstone then we moved onto Sheffield then it was off to climb the gog range to get the cache at the top and attempt to drive to granta pools which we did successfully. The two walkers that were at the pools were rather surprised when the bullbar of the ute came round the corner. After having a chinwag with them and grabbing photos, We then headed for lake McKenzie road so trimbletas could find the sail boat series. Did a maintenance check of all caches as he found them. Once completed we climbed up to lake McKenzie where we stopped to hide some moveables and locate the trig just off the road. Searched for a couple of other caches one the way back home. Overall a great day out was had. TFTC
