The Very Jolly Jaunt 8 - Bovingdon Woods Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

HollynCharlie: We went to check on this cache tonight and it has gone missing which has made us re-think this series as its really hard to now get to from 7, therefore we are archiving a few of the caches although leaving some as Stand alone ones as it would be a shame to archive them. We are working on a new Jolly Jaunt in the area so watch this space.
