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

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.

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!

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.

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

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!

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.

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 4×4 travel bug. TFTC!

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.

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

Stopped at the pub nearby for an incredibly late lunch and to recharge the electric car on my journey from Pembrokeshire to Oxfordshire, because I’d much rather get off the motorway and find somewhere nice to sit while the electrons do their thing. Spotted this nearby cache in the yard of this beautiful church, which made for a lovely walk as the well-tended flowerbeds were wonderfully fragrant. Followed a geotrail to find the cache. Amazing, loved finding this so much. SL, TNLN, TFTC, FP awarded.

The geopup and I took a walk from the Parrog to Newport Sands and back, this morning, and I’m glad we opted to find geocaches on the way back, rather than the way out, because it made this particular cache extraordinarily easy. The rocks that ought to have concealed it were absent and I was able to make out the familiar shape of this kind of container from the path, no searching required!
Returning it to its spot, I attempted to reconceal it with the help of some nearby slabs if slate. But given how much of an obvious magnet to playful children this entire structure is (I’m pretty sure mine had a go at dismantling it on a previous visit, predating this cache, circa 2019!) I’m not sure how long it’ll remain!
TFTC. Great to walk this path once more!

I tried to find this cache back in 2016 without success. I’m confident I’d have looked in the place it’s now hidden – which was today basically the first place I looked! – so maybe fast previous visit was during one of the cache’s periods of absencennIn any case, I returned today and brought my faithful geohound on a morning walk from Parrog to Newport Sands and back, finding this cache on our return leg. She wasn’t much help, but fortunately I didn’t need her to be! TFTC.
