Geocache Description:

The scary woods, probably aren't that scary at all, but when I planted this cache at dusk, the dark inner core of this dense pine woodland certainly seemed a bit eerie. I could have sworn that I was being watched....anyway the cache you are looking for is a green tin box that has been disguised with camouflage tape.

It has been placed at the base of a once used structure, the precise nature of which is contained in the hint. The cache contains a pen and log as well as various swappable items.

This cache makes an ideal park and grab, but this is a very busy road, so you will need to exercise steatlh and caution in order not to draw attention. I would suggest a pair of binoculars as a fashion accessory, so you could be in disguise as a twitcher or plane spotter. There is a nearby layby for park and grabbers, don't try pulling in on this side of the road at the cache location, it's not a good place to stop.

The cache is currently hidden from view, please make sure that when you return it, that it remains hidden from view (from all angles).
