Tag: cache log

  • Outside a Norman-style church, Dan throws a thumbs-up sign.

    Found GC9GEC1 Church Micro 14176...Old Marston

    A quick and easy offset church micro if ever I saw one. I'll tell you what, I totally approve of this form of formula - this letter is this number plus or minus something, ten just string them all together - rather than the more-common algebraic backflips one sometimes has to do. SL, TFTC!

    Found GCANV4T #14 Longworth Loop

    While I searched through potential hosts in this off-the-path GZ, the geopup just stood in one particular place, looking at me as if I were a fool. I should've listened, because clearly her own geosense is developing: she was right next to the cache's hiding spot!
    TFTC, and thanks once more for such a brilliant loop of caches: all nicely hidden, well cared for, and appropriately sized. Really enjoyed our walk this morning

  • Found GCANV4Q #13 Longworth Loop

    After a brief hunt in a couple of candidate places a hit the hint, which was reassuringly clear on which host I should be searching. Soon the cache was in hand. TFTC.

  • Found GCANV4N #12 Longworth Loop

    After fashioning the requisite tool it still took me a solid 5+ attempts to retrieve the cache - it felt a bit like playing those wiggle-wire fairground games that I suck at so much! Once retrieved, the dog was very disappointed that start I was holding wasn't a plaything for her. TFTC, FP awarded for the right container, right hiding place, right difficulty.

    Found GCANV4E #11 Longworth Loop

    Found at retrieved entirely by feel while the geopup stood (well, sat) guard. TFTC.

  • Found GCANV49 #10 Longworth Loop

    A helpful geotrail led me right to this one, though I had to wait until a slow-moving jogger, talking on their phone, had passed before I could retrieve it. TFTC.

    Found GCANV45 #09 Longworth Loop

    Great container in an excellent spot (have another FP!) but retrieval of this one was a bit of a stretch for my old bones! Amazing route you've picked out here, too, CO. TFTC!

  • Found GCANV41 #08 Longworth Loop

    QEF at the one obvious hiding place within the GZ. Got pickled retrieving the cache, but that was nothing compared to how difficult it was to extract the log from its inner container. What a challenge! TFTC.

  • Found GCANV3H #07 Longworth Loop

    A telltale sign to geocacher's eye made both finding and retrieving this cache pretty easy. TFTC!

    Found GCANV3D #06 Longworth Loop

    My geosense tingled and I found this cache straightaway, even while the geohound excitedly ran out into the open field ahead and exhorted me to follow. SL, TFTC!

  • Found GCANV37 #05 Longworth Loop

    After initially following what I mistook for a geotrail but which turned out to be on entirely the wrong side of the path, I soon saw my mistake, crossed over, and had the cache in hand. TFTC.

    Found GCANV2R #03 Longworth Loop

    Searched high and low around the obvious hiding place before sitting down to have a think and immediately spotting another even better hiding place she the cache in pain sight: d'oh! The geopup didn't want to come all the all the way to it so she waited at the first obvious hiding spot.
    Great to see a good sized cache for the environment and in such good condition. FP awarded. Took 4x4 travel bug. TFTC!

    Found GCANV2M #02 Longworth Loop

    Briefly overshot this one and then failed to get a good GPS fix, but the hint set us right. Gorgeous sun this morning on the poppies peeking up over the corn.

    Found GCANV0A #01 Longworth Loop

    A morning walk for the geohound and I kicked off at this cache, near which we'd parked the car. Long been meaning to explore this loop: let's see how far we get before the pooch's tiny legs give her cause to protest! SL as DQ to save space at this QEF. TFTC!

  • Performed maintenance on GC9GTV3 Drive Slowly; Fox Crossing

    Performed a quick checkup on this much-loved cache before the summertime cachers come out in earnest. All looks healthy here!
