Gone, but not forgotten Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Spots of Bright: A very unfortunate but also a very fitting end [:(] for this one.
Designed as the resting place for vanished TB's and GC's the cache vanishes itself - a real shame, only the hollow stump left.

Some of tonight's impressions: drove up in thickening fog, dark, drizzly and cold, down the icy and slippery path - not sure if Spegu's cache can be done - used the light on my mobile to look around for the cache, surrounded by hooting owls, back down the icy path again and some very scary howling and screeching in the woods below...brrr.

Geocache Description:

Quick cache at Stift Göttweig with beautiful views!

This is the last resting place for all our geocoins and travelbugs which have gone missing over the years. They may have disappeared after a long and adventurous life or gone AWOL during their first outing. Whatever the case, we are always sad to lose one and this lovely spot is their garden of remembrance.

Feel free to virtually drop off your own missing geocoins and travel bugs so they are not stuck in an “unknown location”.

I have been looking for a suitable cache site for this particular cache for ages and actually didn't want to place it at Göttweig at first. Only Spegu's lovely Stift Götweig cache reminded me how peaceful, pretty and out of the way this side of the monastery is. There was a great, old hiding place and a bench for logging, so I went for it!

Enjoy the lovely view of Waxenberg and Klein Wien a bit closer to the monastery. If the Acecias are cut back the views from the cache site will be pretty too.

Cache is a little brown, screw top glass tub, just big enough for real GC's and small TB's! Perfect to combine with Spegu's "Stift Göttweig" cache.
