Couldn't find it, it got dark so I got out the torch and a mobile phone. After a call to Nandor I conirmed I was in the right spot but still couldn't see it. Even with a return trip to the car to grab "the sun" (as redIguana likes to call it) I still couldn't spot it.
After coming from Cptn Thomas, this was a litle easier, although it took a bit difficult to find the cache amongst the prickly weeds. Found it, but then realised I'd have to go back to the car and get my pencil to log the find!. Cheers Gav [273]
[This is fantastic! What an excellent cache - ] one of the most ingenious I've come across [ 
Thanks!!]
Thanks!!]
hehehehe!
Very nice! Very glad we were at the Groynes.
It looks almost like this area is going to be part of a subdivision.

Finally found time to finish this cache. Finding the area of the cahe was easy but retreiving the cache proved interesting! You have really outdone yourself Papa Bear.
Thanks for the hunt

We couldn't resist the challenge! A pleasant walk to the cache with great views on this lovely clear morning.
Thanks for taking us on yet another new track - they are certainly everywhere!

Well, went to have a look at this one tonight but it was far too dark and too windy to finish. Will finish it on the weekend but from a different start point!

Changed the description slightly to indicate the easier end to start from. You can do this from the Summit Road, but add 1.5 to the terrain!
