Geocache Description:

A fun cache that may take you longer than expected! The cache is located in a very special place for us - the woods at the top of our garden. It's an easy find, but signing the logbook might take you longer!


Background

We have just returned from a fabulous holiday in Florida and did some great caches whilst there. This one is based loosly on one of them.

As this is our first Large sized cache hide, it's hidden in woods at the top of our garden so we can be sure it does not get muggled. We live very close by to the cache so please, no nighttime caching on this as we would not appreciate it. Please, also no buskwacking as you don't need to and we'd prefer the woods to be left as you found them.

The Cache

The cache is a 5 gallon water bottle (which we brought back from Florida - the check-in staff on the flight home thought we were mad!), painted in camo colors. It's very easy to find - this cache is not about the search for the cache. Initially, it's full of Florida related swaps that we picked up whilst on holiday. You might want to bring your own pen as there may or may not be one in the cache.

When doing this cache please allow more time than usual - you will see why when you find the cache. Please do not give any hints in your logs as to the nature of the cache.

Everything you need to do the cache can be found on location.

Due to the nature of this cache, we have included a keyword at the top of the logbook. Please email the keyword to us to get credit for the find. Any logged finds that do not do this will meet the log terminator.

Please do not take any of the parts to the cache, they are what make the cache special.

You might start off scowling when doing the cache but hopefully by the end you will be smiling!

Hope you enjoy the cache as much as we enjoyed doing the one it's loosly based on in Florida!

Please do not drive down the track to the cache. Park by the lane at the top (co-ords on the cache page) and walk down from there.
