Guidelines:[i] "You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time - normally a few weeks - in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing."[/i]

Geocache Description:

. This cache is at Upton Country Park near Poole. Co-ordinates given are for the car park, your starting place. This covers a couple of miles over footpaths, fields and sometimes muddy ground (wellies might be useful for some parts) There are a couple of stiles/gates to pass through so probably not suitable for wheelchair users, but fine for children. Bikes are not allowed within most of the grounds and the park closes at dusk. This cache has been placed with permission of Poole Borough Council

We chose this place for our first cache as Upton Country Park is a beautiful location with stunning views in places. We have visited many times as a family. There are areas children can play and hide, a bird hide looking out towards Poole and Brownsea Island, and even peacocks :). The container is a 1L tub containing log book, pencil, toys, FTF badge and magnets, also Kids Geocoin we found in our 2nd find. We hope you enjoy your hunt, any feedback on how we could improve this for our next cache would be greatly appreciated. :D
