We're currently staying at Sandspit, and today we explored the Scandrett's Farm and Scott's Landing. Great walks and caches to be found - wouldn't have minded a bit of sun though.... but it is May after all! Happy to find this one, TFTC Smile

Our first visit to Scandrett Regional park. We parked up and completed the lab cache fairly quickly so decided to spend a bit longer here by collecting the other caches and doing one of the walks. No problems finding this cache once we were at the right barn. Nice and easy.
 
26-Nov-22
My brother had recently passed away and so we thought it would be nice to leave our houses for awhile to go for a drive here there and everywhere. So me and my parents ended up here sort of randomly. I knew about this cache and the adventure lab here too.

It was so interesting looking at the signs and reflecting on the history. Once I had done the ad lab I came to this cache. All good here Van Helsing. Had no issues here. Thanks for the cache hide.

We have never been here before and really enjoyed walking around the area and reading about all the history. We arrived early so had the place all to ourselves which made it even more special.
So nice to find such an old cache and such a good sized one too.
Thanks Van Helsing (and Magnus) for bringing us here.

First cache on our Northland trip... Nice farm too. We slept here for the night but were too hungry and tired to look for it on Saturday. Both container and logbook are in good condition. Easy find, although we had a doubt...
 
19-Dec-20
Another regional park to visit and enjoy, ok then. Quick side trip to here for these 3 caches, all good coordinates and easy finds. Nice sized cache here and nice and dry within.

Weekend is here and keen to get away for a quick local-ish visit and Warkworth and Sandspit area were the choices. Not too many finds but plenty of awesome scenery and new experiences.
