This cache has been in need of care and maintenance for some time and as the owner has not responded to recent logs I am archiving it.

Hi
I notice that this cache appears to be in need of maintenance. May I ask that the owner reads the logs and checks the cache to sort out any problems with it or gives an indication of when it may be up and running again for people to find. Please *Log your visit* and write an *Owner Maintenance* log with the information. The *Owner maintenance* log will also remove the *Needs maintenance* attribute (red cross) if that is showing on the cache page. Once the cache has been sorted out you can enable it again. If the cache cannot be fixed it should be archived. If there is no response to this log after 30 days I may archive the cache, in the meantime I am disabling it.
Please Remember: If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

Did this one a while ago and went past today. The building that housed the cache has gone so this one needs archiving.
It's probably just us, but should the cache be located around "Bison Corral" because that structure doesn't seem to exist any more?
We must be missing something here. Everyone declares this to be a ridiculously easy find, but we couldn't find it. Our two GPS and phone had gz at a bare patch of gravel in the middle of the path with the nearest points of wall, fence, tree or bison being 20m-30m away. We looked at a past photo of some building, but we couldn't even spot that. Has something changed around here?
Are we missing something here (other than the cache)?
Gz took us to a pebbly square on the path. Unless the cache is secreted in the surrounding grass, the nearest points of wall, fence, tree and bison/stump are 20m-35m away. Looked at previous photos and we couldn't even spot the featured building.

Last day of our holiday and these are the closest caches to our camp site so we called in on a bright sunny day to do them. A quick find and swap of TBs. TFTC
Found at the start of doing the Rhug circuit. No bison here today, all gone somewhere warm for winter!!

We had heard that last years Halloween event at the Bryn was fantastic so it had been added to this year's must attend list - another chance for a nigh under canvas could not be ignored. I teamed up with Monki for this weekend trip and we had enough camping gear to last for a fortnight.
However, neither of us are any good at planning or organising so we were a little disappointed that our missing Third Amigo (BaggieDave) had neglected his duties this week and not sent us an itinerary for the two day trip. Therefore, we would be making it all up as we went along and keeping our fingers crossed that we would not get into too much trouble.
Most logs signed with our caching names or just initials (MP) but there were a small number of caches where we teamed up with Team Spooky and just used their name.
I was able to get my hands on this one
Many thanks Rhug Estate for your time and effort in setting this cache.
Number 7 of 26 caches on today's quest

A one night camping weekend with pfaffabouters.
Main objective was the Halloween event at the Bryn.
Weather and temperature was fantastic for the end of October.
A great time was had finding some great caches of various types.
Logs signed MP (Monki & pfaffabouters initials) when caching as a pair and others signed Team Spooky when in a group.
Grabbed this one while on our way back to the Midlands
Thanks to Rhug Estate for doing the hard work of setting and maintaining the cache.

This was the only cache I had not found on the Rhug Estate because my brother Brian had failed to include it on our last caching visit. I was showing my partner around the estate completing the same walk as previously. We had just completed the walk, checking all the caches we had already found. I had no GPS but I remembered some of the photos of this cache and with just two possible locations, the cache was found quite quickly. The log book needs some TLC but everything else was in order. I took the obligatory photo of the bison on returning to the car. That's all of them now. I can't wait for a few more caches to be added to this super series. Hint, hint ! TFTC.
Easy to find, as the cache is in full sight. I took the two TBs. TFTC Rhug Estate.
