This cache has been archived.

MAD DOG BOND: This series has been archived. Sorry about that, but it is time for the loop to be retired. Almost every cache has been replaced more than once, and half of the loop is a building site! Maybe someone else can utilise the area instead?

Geocache Description:

This is a simple loop following the footpaths in and around the (still unfinished) Woodlands Park development in Great Dunmow.
A series of 10 caches have been placed in various locations - some will be obvious, and some not so obvious.

Parking can be found in the car park of the nearby supermarket and if you want to do the loop in a clockwise direction, you will need to walk a couple of hundred yards to the start of the footpath, here: N51 52.412 E0 20.615.

You will notice that the road here - Woodside Way, which will eventually become the Dunmow bypass - is not finished, and is fenced off. The footpath parallels this unfinished road until it ends at a kissing gate and deposits you onto an open stretch of the road - fenced off at either end, so no cars! - that another footpath crosses. You will follow this path after grabbing the nearby caches........
All of the caches are located on or very near to the footpaths you will follow - there is no need to climb any fences or put yourself in dangerous situations.

The series is mostly off road, with a short section on pavement, but is unsuitable for buggies and wheelchairs in a couple of places – sorry about that!

The only beavers you will see are on the signs, but if you can see beavers and a footpath sign, you are in the right spot!

The 10 caches in this series are as follows:
1 - Tree House
2 - Bridge Over Muddy Waters
3 - Oasis
4 - Road Block
5 - Nice Beaver
6 - Trunkated
7 - Pond Life
8 - Footpath/Pavement
9 - In Memory Of...
10 - Off Your Trolley
