Looks to me like it runs straight through Cape Byron. I can help with pictures of the surrounding area but not the gps shot I'm afraid.
Do a cache search on postcode 2482 and post a note on the first two caches. Maybe people searching for them can help you.

Well, looks like I am the first Sydneysider to do this one. I was staying the weekend in the upper Hunter at Murrurundi. Only 80 km away as the crow flies but turned out to be a 500km return trip by road! D'oh! Spectacular views though. Looks like a great place to camp. Found the Cache quite easily,...

I left my Magellan Meridian at a cache. It was night and I had no torch. Realised very quickly and spend 20 minutes foraging around in the dark in long grass to find it.

It's a handy site. I used it for a couple of my caches after spotting it on some local pages. Being able to edit the text for the icons is good. Makes your cache page look a bit more interesting, which is useful if you don't know any html.

If you place a cache in an urban area then you run the risk of having it trashed, it goes with the territory. The cache placer has to cop it on the chin. Fair enough comment I think. If you place a Cache somewhere that will have people walking around in the open looking suspicious, surely it's only...

I kind of feel it's my duty to take Travel Bugs when I come across them. After all, it is their purpose to be moved. What is the etiquette of taking TBs from Caches you have already found though? I drop TBs off in my caches to try and attract more visitors but I wouldn't be upset if someone that had...
