Tag: cache log

  • Found GC9QD6R Centurion

    Woke early, as usual, for the first day of a weekend of volunteering, while staying at nearby Fairlawns. I've already tapped out the most-local caches to that hotel on previous stays, so for this morning's walk I came further afield to find this (and one of the two puzzle caches not too far away; that's next, hopefully!)

  • Found GC3PP3Q LOL #2 โ€“ Swimming

    Second time lucky! As the pup and I approached the GZ we found a strange handwritten more on the ground, and, having not seen it on the way up, figured that it must belong to a woman we'd passed a little while ago. So we doubled back and returned it to her - turns out it was her shopping list - and chatted about tree beautiful bluebells (which is what she'd come out to see) before parting ways and returning to this cache.

    This checkin to GCB4774 LOL #5 โ€“ Shooting (revived) reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Success on the second attempt. The geohound "guarded" the buggy-trapping ruts while I searched three different hosts before finding the container. TFTC!

    I let the man with the kids and the dog ahead of me so I'd be able to mount searches without having to stop and separate dogs, but I caught up with him literally at this cache! His buggy (which carried two of the kids - the third was strapped to his chest) had gotten stuck in a rut and he was busy extracting it.

    Did not find GCB476P LOL #4 โ€“ Weightlifting (revived)

    Coordinates seemed solid, hint item seemed clear, but a good feel around didn't reveal anything to me except an alarming sign I had to walk past! (pictured)nnThen a man with kids and a dog came along and we needed to keep moving. Not sure where this could be hidden that I didn't already check!

    Found GC3PP47 LOL #3 โ€“ Wrestling

    An excellent container in a picturesque spot. FP awarded. The geopup didn't want to come exploring off the path so I had to find this one by myself. SL, TFTC.

    Kids playing in the garden overlooking the GZ were watching, so I opted to give this one a miss. Maybe on the way back.

    Found GC3PP1Z LOL #1 - Athletics

    Being between jobs, I decided to offer the geohound a longer then usual walk this morning and clear my head before an application form I need to fill out. We opted for the first leg of this series: let's see how far the little pooch's legs will carry her! Cache found easily, SL, TFTC.
