How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

A nano containing only a log book, you'll need your own pen.

The container is a black 1ml vial discreetly secreted at ground level and well camouflaged for the GZ.

Please replace with the cap facing down.

This is an urban cache, so the is always the ever present danger of muggles. Please be vigilant. Also please replace in exactly the same place.


The last spot

Regarding location I've saved the best till last. This final spot is a real hidden gem for the hood. If you didn't know this was here, be pleasantly surprised when you discover the hoodland oasis.

 

Parking

You can't just park and grab. But there is plenty of parking to be had on Ascot Crescent. Navigating the maze of streets will add the fun of discovering the GZ. At a slow pace, the walk should take less than 10 minutes!

 

Why 20 in the hood?

I run the local Scout troop, St Nicholas Scouts. We have dubbed the neighbourhood as 'the hood'. By this we mean St Nicholas and the fringes of the surrounding areas, i.e. Pin Green, Martins Wood, and Great Ashby. I endeavour to place twenty (and then possibly more) caches in the hood. My motivation for this is threefold:

1) Ensure a sufficient number of caches in the hood so that the Scouts can go geocaching on a Scout night;

2) Increase the number of caches in the hood with a view of helping provide a good, healthy, recreational activity for the 'hoodlans' and help keep them out of mischief;

3) Give something back to the geocaching community in return for all those that have kindly placed caches for me (and the rest of the world) to find.
