The Mole Bowl Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

bobstay: Sadly, it seems this cache has been stolen. But never fear! Just today, the intrepid Matthew & Vincent placed a new cache, Leviathan very close to the Mole Bowl's former location.

The new cache is in a (hopefully) less frequented position, and harder to come across by accident, so we hope it will be less likely to disappear.

Geocache Description:

This cache is on the bank of the river Mole, in Winterdown Wood, Esher. It's within 10ft of a footpath so access should not be a problem.

This cache appears to have been stolen/removed. I am investigating, and it may be re-sited on a less frequented path.

The cache is located on a natural platform on the bank of the river, on a lower level than the footpath that runs along the bank. It's easy to get to on foot - the nearest parking spot is Garson Farm - which is a pick-your-own farm you might like to visit!

The cache is a dark green ammuntion box about 30cm x 20cm x 10cm. In it you'll find something for the parched traveller (remember your swiss army knife), something for the unfortunate cyclist, something for your computer, and something for the musician. Also, there's a disposable camera - please take mugshots, and when the film runs out we'll post them on the internet somewhere and also put some prints in the cache.

The GPS reception is not brilliant (the area is wooded), so look out for the distinctive tree stump on the river side of the path (see picture).

Everything in the cache is in zip-loc bags, and there are a few spare in there for anything you want to put in. Please record your visit in the logbook,and also the numbers of the any pictures you take with the disposable camera (so we can put names to pictures later :)

Drop us an email or send us an SMS if you visit the cache - there are phone numbers in there.
