Description
A bison at the entrance to a popular forest walking area.
It's not often that you come to hide a new geocache and find the co-ords already professionally written on a sign at GZ!
Tall trees may interfere with GPS accuracy so a strong hint is provided.
BYOP.
Please note that bison tubes are watertight due to a sealing O-ring. Overtightening the cylinder can damage this O-ring and allow water in. Please just nip up snugly.

Aha, back at this spot. This time not for a lesson in ralley racing, but to look at coordinates. Nice easy find, thank you for hiding it.

My 2nd find for GCA which was on the way home from my first find. Even with the hint I made this harder than it was. Got fixated on the wrong hint item. Thanks!

I never thought I'd see the day when there'd be a race to FTF for GCA traditionals in Dunedin 
... maybe we're not quite at that level yet, but Lions.v.Lambs got here before me regardless. Still, I'm happy to have left my moniker in second place. Thanks for the hide U.N.C.L.E.

Chasing down the shiniest, newest GCA *FTF* bisons in Dunnas as a pleasant interlude while entertaining the Welcoming Committee going out of their way to make new cacheri feel right at home with all their warm responses. A quick lunch time visit to revisit GC5VGJK Start Time Control for Whare Flat, unbeknownst to me at the time of finding that the start post? was gone but a clean dry sistema was tucked away in the curly end of the safety barrier. Some noob had pushed it in too far and cache had done it's dash? getting archived akin to GC4TYG2 Bo-Bo when cacheri kept moving the cache final around so much not even the CO could find it, eventually. So many dogs up and down the tracks leaving their poopy surprises everywhere and once the coast was clear the newest cache was found quickly to sign the logslip with the given co'ods in plain sight lol. Now off up the track to sign logbooks in the two archived caches in the forest still in place. I must get around to logging those sometime since the challenge is over. Thank you wery much U.N.C.L.E. See you on the trails. WM_sl.
