ART OF THE PHOENIX TRAIL (Bucks/Oxon
border)
The Cache is located at:
N51° 43.961 / W000°
54.436
This location will take you to meet a sculpture called Three
Characters on Poles by Lucy Casson. It's one (three?) work(s)
amongst many spread along the fairly flat, fairly straight track.
This makes it an ideal 'cache to cycle to, but be warned, at busy
times lots of other users on foot, pushchair, bike, wheelchair and
horse will also be using the track, which may make recovering the
MICRO cache without alerting curious muggles rather tricky. Learn
more about the Phoenix Trail and the National Cycle Network
on the Sustrans web site.
To reach the 'cache by bicycle, park in Thame or Princes
Risborough and enjoy the exercise. If you're walking, I'd suggest
parking nearer Towersey or Forty Green. Either way, you can't miss
the Three Poles, or the Characters there on.
Happy hunting!
The full sized cache originally
contained:
1x Thing for cleaning gunk out of your keyboard
2x Tealite candles
1x Audio tape, with 'Future Chill' tracks on it
1x Phoenix Trail flyer
1x Dull keyring
Plus the usual: Cache notice, log book, pen, pencil and a bag for
trashin'
BUT YOU'RE NOW LOOKING FOR A MICRO!
While you're in the area, I suggest you try Happy Hippo's
Four Greens and a Ford, the excellent
Virtual Insanity (which I understand was almost called
'Artiste of the Phoenix Trail') by The Knights Who Say Ni! or my
own
T(H)AME (S)TROLL cache. Both are within short driving
distance.
A small experiment - Please feel free to
rate your visit to this cache out of ten in your
log.
