Logs
Before she started her search Mrs y'stassie spent some time standing back admiring this impressive piece of art work. She then slowly did a circuit of the area. One her second circuit she spotted the clever hide and almost had her hand on the container when something papery touched her hand. She snatxched her hand out and peered downwards. When her eyes fully focussed she saw that the rainbow serpent had recently inspected this site and had left part of his skin behind. Some of this was firmly attached to the cache container while the rest lies in the grass nearby. After satisfying herself that reptile was no longer present she carefully removed the container and signed the log. The container was carefully returned to its place beside the rest of the skin.
Thanks for this cache caughtatwork. This is truly a magic place. A photo showing the source of Mrs y'stassie's elevated heart rate has been added.

This was my turnaround point on today's tour-de-FTF. 
It had me going for a few minutes, even with a squiz at the hint 
, but eventually I spotted what I needed to see and that had me signing the log at 18:45 for our 76th GCA FTF and our 148th overall. 
TNLNSL. Thanks again caughtatwork.
