Easy to get to, easy to find, but can you do it without being seen.

While I was at school we used to call this park Richardson's Park because it used to be part of the Richardson's estate. Close to part of River Heights that has some of the most amazing old houses. While here, take a wander through the area and "smell the money" as they used to say.

This small cache is a camouflaged bottle with a log book and some small trading items - mostly pins. It includes a FTF Certificate.

Quite an easy find for this one. Then again, the 1/1 star difficult would indicate that to begin with ToungeOut. But... I generally don't bother to check cache difficulties before going after them. I just go for it.

In either case... parked on a nearby street and inwards I went. There was the occasional dog being walked, or couple walking down the path, but much time inbetween people for me to check for the cache. Quite glad I went after this guy now, as it would have been completely unavailable after a snowfall/half-melt/freezing or two. Definitely going to have to specifically check which caches are winter-friendly in the near future. Blasted winter. The cache itself was almost frozen into place however. Took a bit of a tug to get it free.

Everyone wanting to do this cache: Currently still pre-winter available, and has been wrenched free from it's frosty prison! GO, GO, GO Smile.

Nonetheless... an easy grab, log/chainmail, and replace. Sat on the park bench nearby to sign it as a couple walked by. Pretty sure they didn't suspect a thing, since I was just random person sitting on a park bench writing on a book of paper.

Took: Nothing
Left: Logbook entry and chainmail ball
