Geocache Description:


A big micro, space for geocoin or a few very small swaps. A underground cache that has easy close by parking if any spots going. I suggest in the laybys opposite side of the road to this cache or same side by flats you are near. If anything going will get the car not 80m away. This is where the larkhill stream comes out and into the Ock river. Could do with a floatation device (a boat ride along river) but no need if want a quick cache with the car nearby. I found it a bit hard on the legs as height is only about 3 foot so not the easiest thing to walk down. Moved it April 2015, until then a pair of wellies would do, now further in and water level deepens, ground ok so beach shoes or old trainers, you will get wet feet, pulling up trousers and sleeves the clothes are ok but up to knees expect to get wet. This is when water level is normal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So where is the cache. Get to the end past a bend where the double concrete pipes are, cache at the top on the ledge to the left when shuffling along, up at ceiling height. Just go as far as you can until the pipes. On left. Easy stuff! My easier other tunnel based cache (no floatation device needed) is this. http://coord.info/GC4TXRG My harder tunnel based cache is this one. http://coord.info/GC4T7NM Another wet one. http://coord.info/GC59JD0 Last Abingdon based wet one of mine. http://coord.info/GC5Y9PD My Oxford underground stream one. http://coord.info/GC5X7TW Last water based cache I set up, this is in Wantage. https://coord.info/GC6QVX0 My friend Jason's underground stream one at Marston I help set up. https://coord.info/GC7893J
