As this cache has been out of action for too long and the cache owner has not responded or performed any maintenance, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to un-archive it.

Heading back from TGA, and had an hour spare to collect a few caches. Parked right next to GZ, and soon found. Had to hurry to sign and replace as I could hear muggles coming back up to their car from the stream. Got it back in time, TFTC.

Brought the grandchildren out for a "treasure hunt" and this was the first of the day. 4CJ found the cache with ease using the hint, once he had negotiated a gorse bush and some cutty grass. Went for a walk down to the river but declined an opportunity for a swim. TNLN TFTC

I drove up the road with grandpa and spotted the falling rocks sign. Tparty showed me the map and the hint and I found the "treasure". Then I went for a walk down to the river and hopped over the rocks. Thank you for bringing me here.

I remember this cache getting published as it was only a couple of days after we placed a cache yet to be listed, there was a time when mitchlin seemed to read our minds about cache hiding spots.
Must get around to listing our one.........
