LL17 - Smell the Berries Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Southerntrekker: Hi There

As the owner has not responded to either my log or my colleague's previous log requesting that they check this cache I am archiving it.

Please note that once the cache has been archived, this can not be undone. This is explained in the Help Center - http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

You will need to create a new listing, put it back in for review and as long as it meets today's guidelines and no other caches have been published in the area causing a proximity problem, then it will be published.

Regards

Geocache Description:

One of a series of caches along part of the walking route of Section 17 of the London Loop.

The London Loop (London Outer Orbital Path), one of the Mayor of London's key routes, almost completely encircles Greater London, covering a total distance of about 150 miles (240km). The idea for the LOOP was first put forward at a meeting of the London Walking Forum in the early 1990's. The first of the 24 sections of the LOOP was opened on 3rd May 1996 with the route becoming fully walkable in 2001.

Go to (visit link) for more on the London Loop.

This cache is along Section 17 of the London Loop, which covers about 8.3 miles (13.3km) between Cockfosters and Enfield Lock. The entrances to this part of the walk are either off Hadley Road at N51 40.053 W000 08.584 or The Ridgeway at N51 40.118 W000 06.770. At the Hadley Road end, parking is available at the lay-bys next to the footpath entrance. There is some parking on residential roads available about 200-300m from The Ridgeway end of the footpath.

This part of the London Loop contains a few kissing gates and stiles along the route.

We named this cache after the strong smell of strawberries from the pick-your-own farm just on the other side of Salmon's Brook when we were looking for cache hiding places. The cache is a disguised 35mm film canister. Contains a badge for the FTF.

Congratulations to rastan on the FTF.
