Took a bit longer than expected, read some more logs had an aha moment Foxbane and son had the eyes for the cache today. Group assault with Foxbane and Schnail.TFTC
Found ground zero but no cache..... Read the previous log and realised we needed to widen out search once we did this we quickly had cache in hand..... TFTC
What a lovely little gem hidden away.
We searchedbat the gz .
Then the Snake widened his slippery search area.
He managed to slither to the right rocks.
While the Rat searched elsewhere. Tftc

That was a little way off, At GZ we searched for something that may tie in with the hint to no avail. Widening the search area more in line with the cache name proved much better with another possible hidey hole. A smiley gained and log returned to its container. TFTC
Well this took longer than thought it would.
GPS had me near large rocks further up the slope.
Eventually found the sneaky cache and signed the log.

Couldn't find tin but found a larger plastic container with screw top and painted black. Forgot pen again! Not sure if it's the same one???
Found it open and just lying on the ground, someone moved it. It's also not an eclipse tin but a black container, so not sure what we found?!
Returned to this after a previous dnf for a relatively quick find. Used "If"'s Co ordinates . Lovely day for a wander! Thanks ARP Family for the hide!!!
I found a shady spot to lean the pushbike
A poke around GZ did not lead to any cache's found [:o]
But the name of the cache gave me an idea of what to look for,
all I had to do was find one !!
A fight with some nearby, scratchy trees led me to a draining place
And nearby I found me a cache

After an extensive search with CPWanderer & Clare007 we were not able to locate this cache. However after reading some previous logs it seems we may have not extended out far enough.
Darn it! Our second DNF for the day!
Time to take the bat & ball and go home!
Thanks for the hide ARP Family.

Cache has been updated to a larger container with swaps and new log book. . Happy hunting
Coordinate's off but widened search by 10m found laying in open with brand new log
Found today and opened it up to find log wet and not writable. Needs to be replaced asap
Second visit here - read some old logs climbed over some old logs and was soon feeling less drained than previous attempt
Our co-ords seemed to be off for this one [B)], but the cache name was enough to give us the direction we needed [8].

Tricky little thing took me quite a while to locate.
GPS wasn't really helping either.

Took a while. Extended the search and soon the little prize was in my hands. Thanks ARP Family.
I took a detour on my way to work today to a location that I've passed before. The cache was not in the first search area that I used or the second, but third time lucky. Thanks ARP Family for some morning exercise.
Joint *FTF* with ttrogg @ 5.05pm :c)
We had only just unpacked the car from our over night country caching trip when we noticed this cache had been published… so back in the car, we quickly made our way over to GZ where we see a familiar car already parked… mr ttrogg had not been there long and was still in search… the cache was soon located, signed and replaced. Then we headed back home again for a long night of catching up with online cache logs from the past two days! TFTC ARP Family.

FTF with redRONSO at 1705 [^][^]
Hadn't been home from work long when a beep told me of a new cache.
And it's close.
Tell the cats they'll have to wait for tea and head down the drive.
Get to a deserted GZ and give the place the once over before redRONSO arrive to help. Wasn't too much longer before it was spotted.
Had replaced when another car pulled up behind mine. Nice to meet H.7 and a quite Young Einstein.
Thanks for the cache ARP Family
