The Unexplored Series
....is a series which takes cachers to areas that people don't
visit as often as the surrounding area. Sometimes it is as if the
area doesn't even exist. The caches themselves can range from micro
to regular, depending what I have on me and depending on the
area.
Rouken Glen Sledging
Area
Most people during the winter months go to the very front of the
park to sledge and have some fun on that hill (Near the
Mastercache 2). I, along with the family, used to as well. Now,
I have this place where, if you go fast enough, can sledge over a
small burn. I only discovered this at December 2008, and what a
great time we had. Remember to stop when you are sledging just
before the river - it turns up very unexpectedly! Have fun. This
area is also a great area for exploring the wildlife, such as the
birds you will hear at the GZ (well.....when I was there, it was
deafening!)! Good area for exploring generally and also for
conker-hunting in the autumn months.
The Cache Itself
The cache is a clear asda container that closes tightly, therefore
pretty waterproof. It originally contains a logbook, a few crayons
and a gold coin (not a GC). These are only a few small items
because I was rushed out the house before I hid this cache, and
only had a chance to pick up a couple of swaps. I will gradually
put more objects in the cache over my many visits to the park.
Since there is no pen or pencil in the cache - just crayons - you
will need to bring a pen to log your find on paper. If you
do not log this on paper, your online log will be
deleted.
Special Infomation
Just to mention I will put a special note on this cache page to the
people who get:
- First to Find
- First to Find with under 100 finds
- First to Find as a milestone, eg. 200th find etc
If you want, post co-ordinates on your log for a conker tree, where
cachers can go to conker-hunt in the autumn! That would be great
and you would recieve a special thanks. This is only an optional
task. The co-ords will be posted here:
- Master QB's favourite climbing area - N55 47.561, W004
19.032
- The QB's coordinates to a conker tree (thanks!) - N55 47.440,
W004 18.710
