Geocache Description:

A 200ml clip lock box capable of holding small trackables



I adopted this cache after hearing that the original CO was no longer able to look after this series. I decided to adopt the active caches that were left in the series, with the plan to also replace those caches that have gone missing from the series over the years.


For posterity I have preserved the original cache description as follows:

Bonnie and I love Geocaching thanks to our friends Teamtan, Ladybird and Andybug for introducing us to it but we felt there should be some more caches locally. This is a walk not far from our home and can tie in with other caches. We've decided to set 12 + 1 caches on this circular and may extend them later. The Micros and nanos do not have pens but the smalls (1 litre clip lock boxes) and regular (3 litre clip lock boxes) have pens and a selection of swaps.

Turn right on the footpath and start off with a bit of semi-urban walking.

This area is Wigmore and development was mostly started in the early 1970s (when I moved to the area). Employment used to be mostly at a car plant in Luton, but since the closure of the car plant and expansion of the airport employment is more varied (you will still see a lot of one type of car in Luton though).

This is a 3 mile circular walk around the edge of Luton and into Hertfordshire. Some of the walk is across fields so is not wheelchair suitable and there are a couple of kissing gates.

We hope you enjoy our series as we were well overdue to set some caches but wanted to try and do a circular so took a while to decide where.
