Description

,

Echo Echo Sierra

 

To find this vial, you'll be taken accross the road from the start of the Witches' Falls walking circuit, which is located in Queensland's first ever National Park. A popular walk with some great views over the western side of the mountain, and a lovely walk through subtropical rainforest.

 

The name Witches Falls originates with the children of Tamborine Mountain, who thought the forest branches looked like witches' brooms as they walked home at dusk.

 

This potion is hidden in plain sight. Please be discrete when removing it. The potion can be removed while it's holder stays in place. Two indentations at the top allow the potion to be lifted from where it rests. 

Due to the shape of the vial, there's only room for the recipe book, pencil and small trinkets. 

As you swig from the vial and add your incantation into the book, wave your NFC enabled mobile phone over the lid and with some deep pagan magic, you should be presented with a code that you can screenshot and save for later. Access to the the witches' cauldren on the mountain is restricted to those that unlock the secrets of the six potions.

We parked the car in front of a sign that states Witches Falls NP is the first in Qld - declared 28 March 1908. Wow! Now that’s something. Clapping
Then we crossed the road and quickly found this cache. Another number was revealed to us by our NFC reader and we were soon on our way to the next cache.
Thanks for another beaut cache.

A planned visit to see GulliversTravels54 resulted in an unexpected cache hunt to Tamborine Mountain.

This was a new information gathering experience for us. Luckily Mr GT set us on the right track and after a couple of false starts we discovered what we needed and set off to our next cache.

Enjoyed the theme of these caches and the locations visited.

Joint *FTF* with GulliversTravels54.

Many thanks, MattyRX for placing these caches, we appreciate the time and effort gone into creating them ClappingClappingClapping
