Geocache Description:

The three caches at Lower Tamar Lake can be done on their own or as part of a longer walk incorporating the other 6 Geo-nut casing caches. The path that the Upper Tamar Lake caches follow is good and almost level all the way round. It is possible to cycle around Upper Tamar Lake. The route around the lake is 2.8 miles long. The linear river walk which takes in Courting Days is about 1.25 miles long. The walk, which is linear, to include the Lower Tamar Lake caches is just over a mile.

The path around this particular cache can be muddy.
This series of caches has been put out in memory of my Dad who sadly passed away suddenly in April. He always said to us 'Going Geo-nutcasing today then?' So I wanted to place some caches in an appropriate place and use this in their titles. As a child I spent a lot of time at Tamar Lake as Dad used to enjoy fly fishing and often went there to try and catch a trout. He continued to fish all through his life and actually caught a 10lb trout just before he died which he was very proud of (not at Tamar Lake). So I hope you all enjoy going geo-nutcasing today and finding this series of caches.
Lower Tamar Lake is located on the Devon-Cornwall border of England near Alfardisworthy. It was constructed in the 1820s to supply water to the Bude Canal.
The lake is managed by the South West Lakes Trust and I would like to thank them for allowing us to place these caches.
