A Man in the Wood Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Weary Banker & Bookworm: I went on a maintenance trip today but found that the area has been ravaged by Forestry work. Asd well as lots of water around there are now huge muddy tracks and felled trees everywhere. I dont suppose that the man in the wood would be very pleased.

I dont think that the area is suitable for caching now or will be for the foreseeable future and so I an going to Archive this one. Many thanks to the few cachers who entering into the intended spirit of this one and left pictures.

Geocache Description:

A chance to show off YOUR tree.


When I was a small child I had a story book with pictures and I can remember being scared by one particular picture of trees in a wood that looked like horrible grotesque figures, grabbing for some fleeing hero or, more likely, heroine on a dark stormy night.

Occasionally these days as we are out Geocaching, I catch sight of a tree and see a figure or a face in it. (Bookworm thinks it must be my age !!). Such is the tree in the photo above and I would have liked to have hidden the cache there. Unfortunately, as it is at the side of a busy lane, I decided against it. ( Bookworm told me that I couldn't !!)

I am sure that I can't be the only one to see trees that resemble people and so this is your opportunity. Please prove me right and upload a photo with your log ( or later) showing one. Edit the picture, if you wish, to show off the features.

Now off to the cache and, would you believe, its in a forest. There is parking close by at the waypoint but do not block the gate. As you find the cache, have a look about you to see if you are being watched.!!
