Geocache Description:




Pirates Trail 21.










This cache is part of the Pirates trail which links our other caches together all the way back to Pirates Trail 1 in the Ancient city of Kaunos at the South end of the lake Koycegiz.
GC3A7FR.



This series "The Pirates Trail" will be around 30 caches following the West shoreline of Lake Koycegiz. This lake is around 12.5kms in length and 4kms wide and at the time of hiding this cache there had been very heavy rainfall over a prolonged period which had raised the water level in the lake by 1 metre, an awful lot of water considering the size of the lake, parts of Koycegiz and tourist locations like the Sultaniye Mudbaths were flooded as a result, local elders say that it has been 45 years since they last saw anything like it, the cache page photos should give you some idea what the area looked like when we hid the caches.

This cache is near the parking area and involves a short up hill climb, the fountain wasn't working when we visited and placed this cache but I soon spotted the reason why and a quick reconnection job and normal flow was resumed .

Tip for Iphone users is to get the cache info on geo-caching app and press top and front buttons at the same time to save screen image to your photo gallery, you can then access photo at GZ and zoom in to spot Sir BFG.
