GC1B3J9 Clyst Valley Meander (Traditional Cache) in South West England, United Kingdom created by The Freelanders

This cache has been archived.

The Freelanders: Cache has definitely been muggled this time, ends of the rope have been burnt [:(!] . As this is the 2nd time in 6 weeks & we were unable to find another hide nearby that was not in danger of flooding, we are reluctantly archiving.

River level was extremely high after all the rain yesterday, to within 2 ft of the cache site (6-8 ft higher than normal!)

Geocache Description:

A lovely spot on the River Clyst near Clyst St Mary, providing some fresh air and tranquillity between the motorway, main roads and the airport!

The cache is located near the weir at the start of the leat which fed the nearby mill (no longer there).

When we placed the cache it was about 10ft above the water level but there is evidence that the water may sometimes be a lot higher, so please be aware that it could be very deep. The cache is accessible from the footpath and there is no need for any dangerous climbing.

Free car parking is available in Clyst St Mary and access to the footpath is either from the bridge where our “Old Clyst Bridge” cache is situated, or further along Frog Lane from the car park.

For a circular walk on your return from the cache, turn right after the stile & follow the path across the flood plain and alongside the river, returning to the far end of the old bridge.

10/04/09 - It seems that the cache may have been deliberately muggled recently, so can we please ask that no trackables are left in the cache for the time being. Thanks.
