Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

This
cache is of a series of caches which are
placed around Eccup Reservoir.
The
complete circuit from cache to cache is about 6 - 6.5 miles -
depending which way you go. Look out for the Red Kites, you are
sure to see them at some point on your journey.
The caches are there to be found... think 'where would I hide a
cache here?' ...
Has MaxKim gone soft? no... the challenge is in the series not the
individual caches.
We hope you enjoy it as much as I we did in Cambs.
The
Caches
The caches are a range of Nano, barrel, micros, screw top vitamin
bottles, 250ml and 500ml click & click boxes. The latter 3
types being camouflaged and contain a small collection of swaps.
Just for fun I'm not going to say which is which. It should be
fairly obvious at each cache site. And to make it more interesting
- no clues to start with - lets see how it goes.
In addition each cache has a code character that helps you towards
the co-ordinates for a final bonus cache. Make a note of the
character and which cache you got it from. You will find it on the
inside of the lid of this cache and on the log sheet. Also - one
cache has a clue to the decryption method for the final and another
has the decryption key. You will need all the caches to decode the
bonus cache.
Some of the paths can be muddy after rain. I do not recommend this
series for wheelchairs because of the soft muddy terrain in places
and only a rugged style of buggy is recommended.
When replacing the cache, please ensure it is well hidden and no
labelling is visible. The cache is not in the wall.
