Cache site has proven unsuitable as the tree is frequently pruned.

SPOILERS: BE WARNEDIt appears that the cache is supposed to be up in the tree, requiring climbing. However, the cap was hung with zip ties where Im assuming it should be, but the rest of the cache is sitting inside the tree, hidden by some bark.

Disabled as appears from previous log to require maintenance.

GCA40P5 Freewheeling

Was heading out this way for a nearby event and I had some time up my sleeve.
Walked up here from a previous cache with all the dog walkers at 6:30 on a Tuesday morning. There was a cat sitting in the middle of the path as I was approaching and the dog in front of me was very excited about that cat pulling on its lead. Finally the cat with a cat like attitude moved off to the side. I moved over to watch the next dog walker behind me interact with this cat but it turns out it was their cat obviously waiting for their human and dog to return home. After they left it was time to do some caching. I was looking totally in the wrong direction at first but finally I spied it.
Busy but pleasant little park in morning

My grand kids wanted to know what Freewheeling meant. I said its when your'e on a bike , no fear and racing down a hill with the wind in your face. They thought that was a great idea. Then they located the cache and we recorded find and moved on to next one. TFTC

I can imagine the adrenaline rush of a child free wheeling down this hill on their bike. Today we walked up the hill from the car park below and got our endorphins that way. A great start to our caching today with the cache being spotted as soon as we arrived at GZ. Thanks tuppens
 
30-Mar-23
What great fun freewheeling down that path would be. Spotted the cache as we arrived at GZ All in good condition. TFTC

Nice easy find after a play at the park, TFTC
 
17-Feb-23
After a haircut I took a slight detour to gather a couple of caches.

It was an easy wander to GZ, and after a couple of rounds of the right tree I made the find. TFTC, tuppens.

After my flying trip through the area yesterday, I decided to return today to find a few of the caches which had appeared on the GPS as I passed.

I parked at the bottom of the path and walked up to the area. It took me a while before I spotted the sneaky little blighter.

I was driving past here after my doctors appointment that got cancelled last minute. Annoyed, I thought the only remedy was to find a cache. I thought I was going to have to drive a long ways or go on some long hike. But no, lucky people are still putting out caches in the local area.
I checked where and thought that can’t be right, as there was one there already. Turns out it was there and the one that was there has gone. Now I searched around for this one and was getting annoyed as my therapy of a cache find was not happening. I looked and looked, and even tried a different tree. I walked away and then came back and spied it straight away, this one you really need to be at the right side or angle to spy the little sucker. Therapy sorted, I signed the log and replaced all as found .
Thanks for the frustrationial fun here, lol is that a word??

Found it… and forgot a pen. Back home it is, then.
 
22-Jan-23
I returned with a pen, and logged the cache. With nothing to lean on, this was difficult, excuse the awful writing. TFTC Tuppens!
 
19-Jan-23
Passing through on the bike while out riding and up pops a new cache.

Well then it must be found. Then to try out this freewheeling trick . Cool
