After looking at this puzzle and think wow how am i going to solve this one and staring at the screen trying to work it out. i was given a hint by a fellow cacher which put me in the right direction to solve this puzzle, with a quick check of the co-ordinance and the correct co-ordinance was solved.
i parked near the local supermarket thinking i could walk straight down the street to the ground zone, little did i know there was a 8 foot drop behind the fencing so i had to walk the long way down and around to the ground zone, once at ground zone some looking around the cache was in hand and the log was signed.

While Mrs Beetle was out last night Mr Beetle spent the evening solving a few more SOTN caches and preparing a caching trip for the day.
This one was tackled first and was a quick find. Then it was back to Pedros [where we had parked the car] for lunch before heading off on our caching way.
Thanks.

Great location for a cache - and this one has survived well.
Sat and watched the river for a bit while having a drink before setting off again
TFTC.
Took the longer way to walk to this cache, and then it took me quite a while to actually find cache.
Found this cache on a 2 day trip to the NW, covering over 1000 kms and finding around 100 caches of both GCA and GC

A lovely spot for a cache. Located quickly. Out finding caches that have been on the solved "to do" list and finally turning them into a smiley while on a big caching trip to the North West. TFTP

Hi 2y'stassies,
With rather inclement weather today thought I'd find a cache nearby. Had solved the puzzle when first published but kept the cache in hand for another blank dz day.
With only a short walk to gz, Murder wasn't too happy as wanted to go way further as usual.
At least there were no muggles about and the cache was quickly found with very accurate coords...gos was reading 1m.
Cache and contents still in top condition.
Many thanks for another top cache in the SOTN series, which have all been thoroughly enjoyed...cheers ST.

Hardest part here was getting to GZ. Parked about 50 metres away but then had the zig zag to actually get there. Once there, it took a couple of minutes to find the right spot, but that was done and I was soon zig zagging my way back to the car.
Thanks for another one guys....

We arrived in town and went straight for dinner as it was late. We were fed quickly so had time for a walk afterwards. As I knew where to look for this cache I suggested we went that way. Once at GZ I made quick find. That's 2 down.

Solved these puzzles last night and then sent mr sharnie's tribe out on a solo mission to hunt them down. Four caches on the list and four FTF This one was the last find for the afternoon at 2.40pm. A very warm afternoon on the north west coast today but always a great day for caching. And thanks to the hot day everyone must have been at the beach, hardly anyone at the park! TFTC and the puzzles
