  • Dan and Annabel with a geocache.

    Found GC23GD0 Latimer Park

    This checkin to GC23GD0 Latimer Park reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found with fleeblewidget and the kids after spending a day at the hotel right next door. Got a bit pickled but got there in the end. TFTC!

  • Found GC8V990 NANOBLITZ You've got some Rattle

    This checkin to GC8V990 NANOBLITZ You've got some Rattle reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A hard walk to an easy find, but this cache has definitely caught the worst of the stormy conditions. Its hiding place has flooded and the container is drenched. Dried as best I could, but โ€ฆ

    Found GC8V997 NANOBLITZ Ground

    This checkin to GC8V997 NANOBLITZ Ground reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Getting down the muddy bank (picture attached) to this one was a bit spicy! Like those before me, I found the cache wedged tight into its hiding space. But unlike them, I was able to construct a crude โ€ฆ

  • Found GC8V98M NANOBLITZ Roses

    This checkin to GC8V98M NANOBLITZ Roses reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. What a strange place for the hint object. What purpose could it serve? Enquiring minds want to know!

    No sprinklers needed at the garden centre today, I'll bet.

  • Couldn't find GC8RN8D NANOBLITZ Vanilla Coke

    This checkin to GC8RN8D NANOBLITZ Vanilla Coke reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Hard to believe any cache could survive the gale force winds ripping over those hilltop. Hunted for some time, including getting a view as per the hint, without luck.

    Found GC8RWDN NANOBLITZ C Log

    This checkin to GC8RWDN NANOBLITZ C Log reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found after an extended hunt, not where the hint would suggest. Looks like it blew quite a way away! Returned to pave specified by coordinates and hint. Log extremely wet, hard to sign.

    You were right about the โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8V98F NANOBLITZ Under a Tenor reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Don't want to be a grass, but I don't think that's legal tinder. End of this road for me, need to loop a different direction now to stay on schedule for my planned arrival at the โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8RN35 NANOBLITZ A Log reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found, but only thanks to the hint! My GPSr had me on the wrong side of the road. In case anybody else is similarly affected, I found the cache about 11m away from where I expected to, โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8RN2T NANOBLITZ C&D Nutkins reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Gave up before this one drove me completely... nuts. No luck in any of the many obvious hiding spots; I think it must've wandered off.

    This checkin to GC8R5ZK NANOBLITZ Pulling a Female reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. The recent winds had blown this little lady clear of her hiding place and into the tree next door. Thankfully I was able to retrieve her by her tether and return her to where (it looks โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8R613 NANOBLITZ Sound FX reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I had to give up on the trail to Deansford Lane: too muddy for my boots! Instead heading East, I found this delightfully noisy cache! Bit of a stretch to reach but managed in the end, and โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8R5XX NANOBLITZ Me Robbin Box reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A bit muddy down this path, but luckily the cache and its hiding place remain above the water level. And hey, it's stopped raining! Nice. TFTC.

First place I looked, but I still squeaked with delight to see the cache container! There were many options for my stop-and-cache plan on today's journey, but I'm already glad I chose here: โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8R5V9 NANOBLITZ Power Point reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. On a geohashing expedition, between the 2022-02-19 52 -2 and 2022-02-20 52 -1 hashpoints, I decided to pull over and do a little geocaching. This first find was very easy - coordinates were spot on, and the โ€ฆ
