Geocache Description:

Backmuir woods is a 45 hectare woodland cared for by The Woodland Trust in partnership with a management group from the local community.

The mixture of mature and new woodland and the wide variety of trees provide a haven for many kinds of wildlife. Jays, woodpeckers, buzzards, ferns, fungi, roe deer and red squirrels are part of that natural mix.

There are about 9km of trails, including 1.5km on a surfaced, all-abilities track. The remainder being woodland trails which can become soft and muddy after rain, so sturdy footwear is advised. The gently sloping terrain offers views over the Tay to the south and the Sidlaws to the north.

This cache is set for Backmuir woods event on Sunday 23rd October. Please do not log before this date.

The Marmal is of course the ideal caching chauffeur extraordinaire. He gets this title for his relentless volunteering to get behind the wheel and chauffeur his caching partners around the country. This has been a typical week and so far caching trips departing from East Lothian have ended up in Bute, Dollar, Kinross and Dundee is next on the list.

As well as his driving abilities (second to none) he has an encyclopedic knowledge of anything to do with the cinema. Its awe inspiring to listen to him on his favourite topic (well it its to me who knows nothing..) and if that is not sufficient talents you can add diving to the list as well.

When it comes to caching The Marmal is in a league of his own and frequently finds those caches when we are all about to give up and log a DNF. Don't know how he does it but he comes up trumps almost every time.

Think you will find this one a bit easier to find though!
