  • Found GC43B36 HR2 - Round the Bend

    This checkin to GC43B36 HR2 - Round the Bend reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Funny: I've manufactured a cache container similar to this once, too, but for a very-different (and distinctly more-urban) environment (GC54F7V): seems like a bit of a strange design for a rural setting!

    This checkin to GC43B3D HR1 - Mr Rusty reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Between the coordinates and the title we were very soon hunting in the right location, but it took the combination of my sharp eyes and my geobuddy Robin's hardy fingers to extract this cache from its โ€ฆ

  • Reported GC25CQR Baloo's Run - 3. Sticks needs maintenance

    This checkin to GC25CQR Baloo's Run - 3. Sticks reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Suspected missing; no finds in most of a year and plenty of DNFs.

  • Requested GC25CQR Baloo's Run - 3. Sticks to be archived

    This checkin to GC25CQR Baloo's Run - 3. Sticks reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Suggesting that this is archived:

    (a) definitely not there (no finds this year, as many DNFs this year as finds last year)
    (b) CO appears to have not logged-in in over four years

    This checkin to GC4N9P4 HR4 - On the Road Again reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Again, we found ourselves reminded that we were doing this series backwards when we briefly puzzled over the title of this cache... before remembering that for others, taking the series in the expected order, โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC43B32 HR3 - Maresy Dotes reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Swiftly found, but we stared for longer than might be expected at the container before working out which bit of it we had to interact with in order to get access to the log. Embarassing, really. โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC4HW6W HR5 - Vandervalk reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Robin's first experience of a container like this one (combined with my GPSr, which for a little while couldn't decide which side of the road we belonged on) slowed him down here: I found the cache quickly โ€ฆ
