Ran unto an unlabelled food drop in a 20L pail on the Arthur Plains three days ago.
Anyone know who it belongs to?
It's hanging from a steel picket just where the K shortcut track meets Mckay's track.
How long should it be left before it becomes rubbish?

I wonder if there might have been a note inside the container?

There was not.
I checked, hoping that would be the case.

It was there on 27th edit: oops I mean 17th November. I suppose somebody might still be doing a megawalk from the west coast or something...? A note would definitely have been good.

Well, it was rubbish when it went in, technically even if it was labelled.
That said, be careful about removing or even moving these things, just (take co-ords) reporting them is a good idea?
I'd hazard a guess that someone found it nearby but there would likely be other old stashes around there, left with the best, one-off, intentions.

I would be inclined to leave it in place, unreported, until the contents have deteriorated beyond any realistic possibility of use.
