Unable to locate, GPSr was pointing to a small tree and we widened our search over 20m but were unable to find anything.

Wow almost 2.5 years since this one was found!! Lots of bees around as there are many bee boxes near GZ! Managed to find cache without being stung Very Happy cache pristine inside...although had lots of dirt, mould and cobwebs on the outside! TFTC.

As stated before co-ordinates were out but looked in the obvious spot and there it was. This ammo can had a treasure trove of goodies. Thanks postman Pat, left a RD.

I agree with lokipagan's co-ords, they were spot on. I was very keen to detour by this cache this afternoon as it hadn't been found for over a year. We took the short way around and looked at GZ then began to search the obvious nearby spots.

After searching for quite a long time, poking in all the likely looking spots and peering deep into anything that might have held a good old ammo can, we were ready to give up. I cajoled strike-a-light to come and help me look a bit more at lokipagan's location and he scraped the leaves away from the cache immediately! It was totally clean and dry inside despite the very wet year we've had, those ammo cans last for a VERY long time!

Yeah! Another unloved cache is now "current" again.

There are some HUUUGGGE spiders in the area. Spent a long time searching all over for this one before Loki eventually poked deep enough in just the right spot. Coords were way out for us. I have provided our coordinates with 3m accuracy. Thanks

My Nuvi tried to set me down a lane way but ignored it & took the long way. Found the cache after an extensive search - my GZ was elsewhere. Thanks.

With the night becoming warmer than it was all day I decided a couple more caches were in order before heading south so I decided to head down this way and see if these caches had been found this weekend. This one wasn't so another *FTF* for me, yay. Another great cache.

Thanks PP.
