Geocache Description:


This cache was originally Tour de Esk 4 but since the bridge crossing from the camp was washed away in December 2015 it is no longer accessible from along the route of the other caches. The camp looks like it's in it's final days too. It was a derelict eyesore when we placed the cache originally so hopefully the area will look better once it's demolished. We found this interesting article mentioning the bridge and camp when trying to research exactly what was happening with it http://blog.couttsweb.co.uk/?p=2776

Dalbog

The buildings here officially are called Haughend Cadet Centre but are more normally called Dalbog Camp by the cadet forces which used it - not sure if it's still in use these days as the buildings look pretty abandoned with broken windows, rotting wood etc although it still seems to be securely locked.

The cache is on the other side of the river to the camp, but no longer accessed by bridge.

There is a large pull in/parking area just before the large sign as you are driving up the glen. You can follow the narrow path downhill from there towards the river where the cache is hidden.

Cache is a drinks can sized screwtop.
