Strathyre Fir Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Geo-Gophers: Have decided to archive this one, it had definitely gone.

On reflection we think that this is just too popular an area for the fishing. We saw a lot of old campfires near the cache site yesterday, and it would probably end up being muggled again.

Geocache Description:


A peaceful wee riverside daunder, at Strathyre.

**The cache label/log will say "Strathyre Pine"......but it should read "Strathyre Fir"...getting our trees mixed up LOL!**

We parked in the car park (co-ords given below) next to "The Dun Lubnaig Broch Project".

Car Park Co-Ords: N 56° 19.327 W 004° 19.831

Make your way across the bouncy suspension bridge and then go left over the stile. It's quite a high stile, but geodogs worry not....there is a dog-gate by the side of it just for you.

From there it's a nice easy, short stroll along to GZ.

Stealth will be needed at times as this is a very popular area with dog walkers. Care is needed if you have small children with you, with this one being so close to the river.

The cache is a camoflaged large lock & lock box, and at the time of placing the original contents were:

Log book, pen and stash card - all in a ziplock bag.

Swaps:

"Action Man" scribble pack
Toy car
Little Pony (purple)
Kiddies folding ruler
Travel alarm clock
Calculator
Swap Point crayon
