Geocache Description:

The coordinates at the top of the page are NOT where the cache is and it will NOT help to go there.

The day started just like any other caching day with three good friends going on a caching mission somewhere between South Chailey, Scaynes Hill and Burgess Hill in Mid Sussex. They were heading for one particular place where it was believed The Lost Cachers was hidden. Unfortunately, they managed to lose their way and all batteries on GPSrs and PDAs mysteriously ran out of power. Being totally reliant on these modern day gizmos the trio were lost…

I expect you are wondering exactly who these three unfortunate cachers were and what this cache is all about, so I will tell you.

The cachers were Martletsman, poohtiggs and Tootsie's Trackers.

Just before they went missing they contacted me and gave me their location at that time and various clue information that would lead to The Lost Cachers.

The coordinates at the top of the page are where they were last known to be but it will NOT help to go there, nor will it help to ask any of them as they have had their memories wiped by strange forces. However, they did tell me that the cache is apparently located somewhere in the triangle between South Chailey, Scaynes Hill and Burgess Hill in Mid Sussex, a bit like the Bermuda Triangle but with far less water.

The information they gave me as to the whereabouts of the cache has been attached to three Travel Bugs, one in each of their names. To find this cache you will firstly need to locate each of the three TBs and unite the information they contain.

The Travel Bugs you need are:

The Lost Cachers - #1 - Martletsman
The Lost Cachers - #2 - poohtiggs
The Lost Cachers - #3 - Tootsie's Trackers



Now for some simple rules:

To log the final cache you MUST have had each of the three individual TBs in your possession. Failure to do so will result in your log being deleted.

You must NOT share the clues or cache location with anyone.

Do NOT remove the TBs from the mainland. They MUST remain in ENGLAND, SCOTLAND or WALES.

Please move the TBs along quickly so others can join the search.

Do NOT give away TB clues or cache location when logging them.

No event caches for any of the 3 TBs. Discovering will not count.



All future finds of the TBs will require the cacher to pick up from one cache and drop in a 'different' cache.

PLEASE ENSURE THE CACHE IS WELL HIDDEN WHEN REPLACING IT.


The Lost Cachers can be found at:

N50 5 (C+G+L) . ((A-E)+K) ((B+F)-I) (D+H+J)


W000 0 ((B+I)-E) . ((D-L)+G) ((C-H)-J) ((A+F)-(2*K))



Good Luck and Happy Caching!!
