  • Found GLFBZCBN Route Canal - FORE!

    This checkin to GLFBZCBN Route Canal - FORE! reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Took a while to squeeze my arm around to the hiding place, and got pickled on the way, but worth it in the end. Dropped off a travel big that's come a long way! TFTC!

  • Couldn't find GC3VHPY Never at Sea - Rock of Gibraltar

    This checkin to GC3VHPY Never at Sea - Rock of Gibraltar reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. So close... but a chap had parked his boat RIGHT NEXT TO THE CACHE and was giving me suspicious looks. Some other time, perhaps. :-(

  • Looking for red phone boxes in Oxford. Can you help?




    I'm trying to index the location of red telephone boxes in Oxford, for a project I'm doing. I'm especially interested in ones outside of the city centre (it's easy to find the ones on Broad Street, High Street, Parks Road, St. Giles, etc.). If you're aware of any, or if you're e.g. willing to โ€ฆ

  • Found GLF6XK60 St. Mary

    This checkin to GLF6XK60 St. Mary reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Took a lovely walk out here with my niece, this morning. Tried to use the counting of the scrolls as an educational exercise, but she was far more-interested in looking at all of the flowers on the graves. โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC13WZQ Swing Lower (Historic Site) reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. No, lucymcneil99, you don't necessarily need climbing equipment. A boat would suffice, instead. Or just a lot of guts and good climbing skills. How close did you get?

As evidenced by recent logs, this cache has "drifted" a long way from where it belongs (for anybody familiar with the hiding place: it should be out-of-sight, but easily reachable by an arm as short โ€ฆ
