  • Found GC7R9VM The red cat of Marston Street

    This checkin to GC7R9VM The red cat of Marston Street reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Super easy find while on my way to an IndieWebCamp event (to work on some open source geocaching tools, no less!) around the corner this Saturday morning. TFTC!

    Geohashing expedition 2018-08-23 50 -1

    This checkin to geohash 2018-08-23 50 -1 reflects a geohashing expedition. See more of Dan's hash logs. Location
    Hyden Wood, near Chidden. The woods look to be criss-crossed with footpaths, so this might be pretty achievable.

    This checkin to GC5P5KN SDGT South Downs Way Mile 20 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. It's been a long time since I've seen a geocache hidden this way: FP for that alone! A lovely spot to drop in on in my way back from a successful hike to the โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC2X5BJ Small Down Boogie 3 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. An easy find while taking a shortcut through the woods on my way to the 2018-08-23 50 -1 geohashing hashpoint (an expedition that was eventually successful, though not without its challenges)! Container was exposed so I โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GCTNZ6 Vโ€™s own @ M4 - J13 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Better than your usual services cache-and-dash, I really appreciated that this cache took me away from the service station and along up a delightful little bridleway, this morning, not to mention the decent-sized container!

    This checkin to GC6P6WR Pub Quiz reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I just received a message from user LesHommesSauvages who're so close to solving this puzzle. Here's hoping that the mild hint I gave them about which digit they'd gotten wrong is enough to have their "Found it" message โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GLWG7T19 Blind-House Lacock Revisited reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. In Lacock on an "away day" with colleagues from the Bodleian Libraries to visit the Abbey, I found a spare few minutes to seek this cache. Spent some time puzzling over the first stage because somebody seems โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC7R0HB The Fairy Elevator reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Came by to check up on this cache following the previous log entry. Everything is fine here; tucked the paracord away a little more-tidily and did a little litter picking, and my preschooler took a pink flower โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC54KVD Oxford Medical History #2: Grey matter reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. (With owner's permission) moved cache container about 30cm closer to the road in order to put it under better cover, as the bush that used to provide for its concealment has been severely cut โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC7Q9FF Oxford's Wild Wolf Two reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. You think when you chain a container to an abandoned concrete block that's been "just standing there" fire years that it'll be safe, don't you? Turns out: not necessarily!

    This checkin to GLW6DXB2 Moor or Less reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Lunch break from a conference in the Barbican Centre gave me an excuse to introduce a colleague to geocaching. Couldn't have done it without the hint! TFTC.

I hung around for a while and the muggles dispersed for long enough that I could get in and sign the log. TFTC. Great hide, and fab location: FP awarded.
