GC21-Gated Community. Geolympix Cyclerama 21 Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Simply Paul: 13 miles on foot? There's a reason this series has suffered a lack of maintenance since my bicycle was stolen... So, time to let it go. Sincere thanks to everyone who did this cache and/or the series, and to Sustrans for the permission to place them. Sorry for any DNFs here!

First to bite the dust, at 12.12. Found slightly out of place, but no harm done.

Don't miss the Winter Geolympix. We've some cool stuff coming!

Geocache Description:

Set with the support of Sustrans along their National Cycle Network Route 57 - The Phoenix Trail - between Thame in Oxon and Princes Risborough in Bucks, this 6.5 mile (each way) series of caches, mostly along a disused railway line, are a part of the Geolympix Legacy.

Gather a letter and a number from this cache to find the Bonus cache.

To find this cache: The steepest bit of the trail! Hidden at the top of the only thing you could call a meaningful incline on this whole series. IMPORTANT: The cache isn't on or close-to the tracks. There is no need to climb any fences or gates or otherwise try to access the railway! Trains do use this stretch of the Ickniekd Line so take care when crossing the line. It's usually gated to protect you. You'll find the cache above ground level, tucked away. Good luck!
