Cache #61 of our U.K. trip.
Phew! That hill! My legs were quite rubbery by the time I'd arrived at GZ. I was relieved to find that I didn't need to bend down to grab this cache.
Signed and returned. Thank you.

The ninth find of thirteen out of a total of thirteen attempts made on a very warm, dry and sunny autumn early afternoon and into early evening. With the unusual occasion of all members of the Crew being off from work and school at the same time for the first time during the summer it was decided to have a relaxing day out, go for a pub lunch and grab a few geocaches on the way. Attempted after successfully completing "HALO - St Alleyne" and continuing to follow the coastal footpath from Polkerris to Par, and on towards the next nearest unfound cache, stopping off to gather the required details for "Feeding Ducks - Again." before tackling the steep hill. This time a quick and easy find for Mr Chaos without use of the actual hint due to accurate co-ordinates and a good GPS signal, plus being muggled by the farmer or landowner who shouted out where the cache was hidden as Mr Chaos fought his way through the nettles and brambles (and in slightly the wrong place). Signed the log but traded nothing and replaced exactly as found. Even with the landowner knowing the caches location it seems to be safe enough as he doesn't seem to have a problem with it. Thank you for the cache. # 3281
Easily found. I dropped off the TB 'Shep - Border Collie Geocoin'. It's goal was: "To travel cache to cache and to Parr in Cornwall The Fowey Lifeboat @Polkerris cache in particular (GC2DKYC)". Unfortunately the desired cache has been archived, so this being not far away, I left it here instead. TFTC The Choughly Saint.
Today Dreadz2002 and myself tackled the entire HALO series. Our feet have not forgiven us yet.
It was a very enjoyable walk and due to the huge amount of caches and the fact that i lost my field notes (pressed the wrong button. Not a happy bunny) this write up will be posted as the log for all the finds. I do apologize for this and in time i will hopefully edit them to be more unique as an when I can remember details about individual caches.
We set off from St Anne cache in St Blazey at just after 0700 and got back to that cache just after 1850 with a total time of 11:50 and a distance of just under 25 miles. We did few other caches that were on route too.
We saw plenty of other cachers out and about today that were all going round the trail in the other direction to us which got us slightly worried as to what might be ahead with hills but there were no problems in the end.
It was nice to see baby pigs running around in one of the fields and there were so many cows on the trail.
A big thankyou to all the people involved in creating this series for all the time and effort you have all put in to it. And thankyou for bringing us to some amazing places that we never knew about.
Now all that is required is a few days for the feet to stop hurting.
