Geocache Description:


This cache is one of the Encuentro Lucky Seven Series comprising;

GC356ZX Broken Cross Hamlet

GC35BDE Seeing is Retrieving

GC356Y6 Because It’s There

GC334N2 Obviously Not

GC35WP3 Groper

GC356XM Who Let The Dogs Out?

GC3570B Under Yer Nose Tha Knows

These may be done individually or together in a circular 3.20mile/5.15km walk including 665ft/203m of climbing. It should take about 2 to 2 1/2 hours to complete including searching time.

Try Googling “Lucky Number Seven or 7” before or afterwards and you will come up with some really interesting facts and figures.

I’ve tried to make the series as diverse as possible in terms of ease of finding, novelty value, interest and ability to exchange swaps and TBs. I welcome any constructive comments so I can improve in future.

Whenever you have completed all seven of the above caches, you may copy and paste the following code, to add a little memento of this series, into your profile page;

Main job is to enjoy it all and have fun!!

This cache fits very nicely with a number of nearby caches, so you can do it alone if you like, or combine it with the others already in the area.

I often run past this place from where you can see the lovely cricket grounds belonging to Almondbury Wesleyans CC. You might not otherwise see it, as it’s tucked away behind the road and houses. It would be a shame to miss the typically English sight of the cricketers and spectators enjoying themselves on a nice summer’s day.

You are looking for a 600ml screw top container with room for swaps, TBs and geocoins. I’ve made it easy to find so that families can enjoy the basics of geocaching and exchanging goodies. It also has a magical touch.........the Hawthorn tree!!

SEARCHING FOR EXCELLENCE

CONGRATULATIONS to the Parkinsons on being first to find. Well done!
