Hmm, that is a really cosy place: spiders and their webs all over the place plus a snake warning. Luckily we did not have to search long. I would not have done it here. Now the cache is signed and we leave that place to its inhabitants. Thanks for the cache!

Odd place for a shelter, feel it should be facing the beach. Not signed due to lack of pen. Like the mosaic stingray down a bit. HNB

Great Northern escape 2022 Day 95. Tully Day 9. I had left myself one day to explore the region so I headed out to the Mission beach area. I was rewarded with my first every wild adult Cassowary sighting. I managed a few caches and a nice walk on the beach. I also visited an amazing river on the flat area west of the highway. It is very interesting in amongst the cane fields.

The day started with this shed. I was able to see it from one side and retrieved from the other. A bit awkward, but well out of the way of most users.

Thanks for the cache Fullboar>
