A more 'EXTREME' cache than usual from my self. You will require specialist skills and equiptment to complete the challenge.
Please Note From The Outset: This cache is rated 5 (five) / 5 (five) after seeking advice from the geocaching.com team. This cache 'SHOULD NOT' be attempted by the inexperienced and foolhardy as a mistake will result in a 'FATALITY'. I would very much hope that somebody at some point will do this cache and enjoy the fact that it maybe somewhat different to others in the locality. However I don't wish for anyone to be hurt or injure themselves in any way, so don't be tempted to be a have a go hero or be a FTF if you are not an experienced climber or abseiler.
This cache is in a small camouflaged container fixed to a structure. The structure is at N52,31.936 W001,11.841 (As the title and 5/5 rating suggests it is not on the ground) you will need to look up and around a little to find it. You can park nearby at N52.31.770 W001.11.687 and walk the short distance to the cache (350 meters). Alternately if you like walking and don't mind hauling your gear, park in either the village of Dunton Basset or Cosby and follow the GPS along the almost straight footpath.
Important Notes About The Cache Its Self:
1: This cache is camouflaged and attached to the structure by about 12" = 30cm of chain, so the log book needs to be signed in situ. The lid of the cache should unscrew and is attached to the body of the cache via a short length of chain (To stop it being inadvertently dropped). However the log book is loose, so be careful not to drop it whilst signing (Take A Pen With You). Sorry but there is no room for swaps.
2: It is not possible to unhook, lower or raise the cache to a position were you can sign the log book.
3: Do not under any circumstances even dream or think for one split second that you can reach down to this cache 'FALLING 30 FEET WOULD BE FATAL'.
4: As you should be an experienced climber or absieler, I will leave roping up points to your own discretion. I nor Geocaching hold any responsibility for foolish actions.
Health & Safety:
1: Don't go to do this cache alone, take a buddy.
2: Tell someone (Wife, Hubby, Mum & Dad etc.) where you are going and what you are doing.
3: Make sure you have a mobile phone with you and that it has both charge and credit.
4: Take a First Aid Kit just in case.
I very much look forward to somebody completing this challenge, but as I said earlier I do not want anyone to be injured in pursuit of it. Please take great care and have fun.
