Geocache Description:


Poohsticks is a game first mentioned in The House at Pooh Corner, a Winnie-the-Pooh book by A. A. Milne. It is a simple game which may be played on any bridge over running water; each player drops a stick on the upstream side of a bridge and the one whose stick first appears on the downstream side is the winner.The game first came to prominence when it was described in the author's book The House at Pooh Corner . Winnie-the-Pooh, the protagonist of the book, accidentally drops a pine cone into a river from a bridge and devises the rules for Poohsticks. Pooh continues to play the game with the other characters.We often play pooh cones here and have a picnic and talk about times gone by.
The Allt mor footbridge is a great place to start one of the many walks around Glenmore Forest Park.Thanks to Brian Duff of the Forestry Commission for allowing this one to be placed.
Come and play Pooh cones....
Happy hunting Ujax Joel and Jacob.
