  • Found GC8R5XX NANOBLITZ Me Robbin Box

    This checkin to GC8R5XX NANOBLITZ Me Robbin Box reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A bit muddy down this path, but luckily the cache and its hiding place remain above the water level. And hey, it's stopped raining! Nice. TFTC.

    This checkin to GC8R5WH NANOBLITZ Like a Rat up a Pipe reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. First place I looked, but I still squeaked with delight to see the cache container! There were many options for my stop-and-cache plan on today's journey, but I'm already glad I chose here: โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC8R5V9 NANOBLITZ Power Point reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. On a geohashing expedition, between the 2022-02-19 52 -2 and 2022-02-20 52 -1 hashpoints, I decided to pull over and do a little geocaching. This first find was very easy - coordinates were spot on, and the โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC1WXE1 A Road Anarchy A417 - Stand & Deliver reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Not the first place I looked! Came out this way, this morning, to find the nearby 2021-12-22 51 -2 geohashpoint (it's about two kilometres West of this GZ) and, during my return โ€ฆ

    Found GC5VKVN Walk by the Firehouse #4

    This checkin to GC5VKVN Walk by the Firehouse #4 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I first tried to find this cache back in 2018, but the cache container had been destroyed leaving only a fragment of it left. Today, as I was out on a lunchtime cycle nearby anyway, โ€ฆ

    Couldn't find GC9K2D0 The Footpath Wonder

    This checkin to GC9K2D0 The Footpath Wonder reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Saw the notification pop up and thought this was an obvious FTF opportunity, so me and a geokid zipped out and mounted a search. After about 20 minutes of hunting we double checked hint cache details - โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC1E9YX Uninhabited Island reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Geosense sent me straight to this one during a short visit to Stratford.

    Performed maintenance for GC9EXXC Shady Seat on The Green

    This checkin to GC9EXXC Shady Seat on The Green reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I was out on a head-clearing walk anyway this evening as I waited for my computer to catch up with me on some batch processing work, so I figured I'd check on this cache, which โ€ฆ

    Performed maintenance for GC8W7QW Forgotten Bridge

    This checkin to GC8W7QW Forgotten Bridge reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Took a late hike out here for a maintenance checkup before winter: make sure the waterproof seal is good etc. Really creepy to walk out here alone in the night fog, silent except for the occasional startling loud โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC54MFQ (Mac)Donald Where's Your Troosers? reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Staying at the nearby hotel I came out last night to try and find this but quickly gave up rather than poke around in the gloomy night. I'd brought a torch for exactly this kind of โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC9GKJA A Fine Pair # 1625 ~ Eynsham reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Dropped by for a maintenance visit. All is well except for a discrepancy between the paper and online logs, which I'm following up with the cachers in question.

    Update: I've verified that everybody who's โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC9GKJA A Fine Pair # 1625 ~ Eynsham reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I like to check in on my new caches after about a week in the field to ensure there are no teething troubles with their hiding place/weatherproofing etc. All looks good here!

The second of the caches in this series that I found in between errands, this afternoon, was probably the easiest, because the hiding place reminds me distinctly of one of my own hides! โ€ฆ
