I/We haven't done many GCA Multi's so when we saw this icon up here yesterday it was a quick decision to do it today. Grabbed the info required - calculated GZ - and then we wandered over for the nice find.
TFTC SDL !!
Gathered the required info - calculated GZ - and wandered over for a nice quick find. Awesome ! Haven't done many GCA Multis.
Thanks SDL !!
After finding another cache she headed towards gz for this one and soon saw a possible hide. She soon had a large container in hand and was able to sign the log. The sight is well away from the path and the many muggles who regularly use it.
The container and contents were in good condition.
Thanks for the cache Sol De Lune and for the insight into the plants and birds that inhabit the reserve. Unfortunately the birds were keeping out of sight.
took about 30 min or so. most of the time was playing with location settings on my phone to get the GPS to work. not that anyone reading this will care but it turns out I need to take it out of high accuracy and switch off a number of settings designed to make it more accurate.
Anyway it was a good hunt, not too cold and another smiley to add to my list.

Many apologies but it appears that I missed logging this one way back. Not sure how but it was during a run (figurative rather than literal) around this Mt.
TFTC and the addition.
PS I signed the log some time back but I have only started accessing the webpage today.
A nice little stroll to GZ and the goods were soon discovered in the fading light. Another blank log was soon signed for a *FTF*.
Thanks Sdl for the cache, a nice little multi.
