One day on the island and after tramping 4 hours we arrived at the beach, at an incoming high tide. I was going to pass this one up until my wife called me a wimp. Who me? I waded waist high, found the white rocks and climbed much too high up the side of the nugget. Should have read the hint more closely. The ribbon is gone. I found a small piece of it on the ground on the way back down, and the cache.
I had one Travel Bug (Homer Simpson) left and this was an apropriate place for it.
When I went to return the tide was much higher and I needed to swim back. The water was great and I loved it.
Dried off, got dressed and continued 2 more hours of tramping.
Took nothing.
Placed a SuMo Cyclist logo sticker, that I carried there in my teeth, on the inside of the cache lid.
Loved the adventure.

Loved the history walk, I love boats.
Had it not been for Geocaching I would not have known of this bit of hokkitika history. Many thanks.
There is a bit more of the history and photos at the pub across the street from the cache.
Emptied water from the cache and dried things out a bit.

Great location.
The wind was howling something fierce.
I did not have the courage to return down the way that I came. waded through mild gorse and went down the hill on the inland side. Not the easiest but I felt safer.
Traded travel Bugs.

Beautiful location.
Thanks for bringing us here.
It was raining and the wind was howling. The swing bridge was swinging so much I only dared take three steps out on it, especially since it had an under repair sign on it.
Was visited by a Weka bird looking for a handout.

This tower is located in Barga, Italy.
There are towers all over Italy but this is the only one in Barga. A wonderful hill town to visit with few tourists.
