The Panda Stone Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Malpas Wanderer: Out for a tour of my caches in this direction.

Regrettably I think it has gone. There looks to have been recent fencing work carried out and expect it was tidied away during that.

A chequered history with some cachers having it easy and others timing their visits when it was a harder challenge.

Lots of visits but still no clear reason why the stone is there.

Many good memories such as the FTF'ers who required three visits, how come they can solve my puzzle caches but struggle finding this simple micro, it was originally very simply set.

Equally memorable was the dummy cache that had a log added to it, making two caches on site for a short period.

Thanks to all those that visited it and contributed your valued logs, such that make setting caches a pleasure.

Geocache Description:


A quick roadside cache and dash at the A339 / Weston Road junction at Herriard.

Please do not stop on the busy A339 there is a disused gateway suitable to park one car on Weston Road within feet of the cache.

I've nicknamed this roadside feature the panda stone, I've no idea of its purpose.

You are looking for a film canister residing a few feet from the stone, bring your own pen.

UPDATE: Hide changed 02/04/2008.

UPDATE: 09/06/08 It should be possible to find the cache containment avoiding any nettles nearby. The hint should help extract the cache from said containment rather than locate it, there are only a few places it could reside.

UPDATE: 08/07/08 Changed the hint as folk are struggling, it will either help or confuse, don't take one word too literally
