Geocache Description:

This cache is to replace my last EagleXtreme 3 - Climb for the Cache, after it being muggled, and Mrs MC and myself deciding that it wasn't any good for a cache site. I have included co-ordinates as a waypoint for the tree if any wish another climb......this one isn't much of an extreme. THIS CACHE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE DURING WINTER (November 30 to January 31)

The EagleXtreme Series

The EagleXtreme series of caches were placed mostly in places or positions related to heights or danger. The heights could be over a bridge, up a tree, or even standing on a log suspended 20cm above a river. The danger could be no protection from a deep reservoir, up a tree, or a cache GZ just before a sheer drop. Caches in the series include:

  • EagleXtreme 1: The Death River GC2E3J2
  • EagleXtreme 2: The Distance to Death (Not Yet Published)
  • EagleXtreme 3: Climb for the Cache GC2E9AN (Archived)
  • EagleXtreme 4: The Danger Dam GC2EM1Y

Pollok Park

Pollok park, a fantastic park for walking, cycling, morning jogs, a walk with the kids, or (in my case) a good place to bag caches. There are many attractions to visit, including the burrell collection, the pollok house, woodland walks, mountain style biking in the forest and a play park for younger kids. This great park achieved the 2008 European Best Park award for its outstanding quality and facilities.

The Cache Itself

.....is a replacement cache for my 'Climb for the Cache GC2E9AN' as it was muggled. This area of the park is less visited and is and area with lots of weird trees like at my previous EagleXtreme 3. This one isn't much of an extreme.......the most extreme you will get is taking the chance of getting scratched by holly or thorns! The cache is at the base of a sort of curly tree. There is also many other strange trees nearby you can climb. A great cache for the kids. Enjoy :)

One Last Thing.......

Have a go at climbing a tree. It can be anywhere in the park. There are many. If you want, you can post coordinates of another weird tree in your log for other cachers to see and go to for a bit of fun outdoors. After all, thats what geocaching was set up to achieve! If you do post coordinates, I will post them on my cache page for others to see......try and take pictures too......thank you!!!! :)

Congrats to the deadly chicken - FTF (Yiiippeeehhhh!)

Coordinates to another tree??? Not yet....but a good picture of a spooky tree in the dark from the deadly chicken (SPOILER) which is great.....
