Description
J & J's fortieth geocache hide. An two-stage multi with a short, easy walk to the cache.
Getting to the start location may require a vehicle with good ground clearance, and preferably 4WD if there is a water crossing involved. Please see the cache "Knee Deep, Knee Deep" to see what you might be up against.
Alternatively you could park your car on the eastern side of the puddle and take a slightly longer walk.
At the listed coordinates you will need to find a green bison tube containing the final location of this cache. You then get to enjoy a nice stroll of less than 700 metres in a pristine part of Kuitpo Forest.
The cache is a 3.5 litre Sistema lettuce container painted in cammo colours.
That's right. Lettuce.
Happy hunting!

Logs
Found the bison tube on the ground at wp1, info was a little damp but still ledgible 
wedged it back in where I think it originally was at chest height then off for a lovely stroll in the forest to GZ
Spot on coordinates made for a nice quick find
however I can now confirm that lettuce containers are not water proof! This one was half full of water 
Emptied and dried it out, contents were fine thanks to plastic bags, signed the log, reassembled everything and put it back upside down (hopefully this will help to keep some water out!)
Then it was a nice, chilly, 1 km walk back to the car - I hadn't risked the water crossing
Cheers & thanks for a fun hunt J & J, oh... and another FTF
