Geocache Description:

A challenge cache located just off the Portaferry Road with a view of the airport

The cache IS at the posted co-ordinates.


The Travelling Cacher Challenge series

A series of caches placed in and around the greater North Down area to celebrate the global aspect of geocaching and the fact that one of the joys of a global game is that you can always take it with you.

Both travelling and geocaching are great fun, so it only makes sense to see and cache as far and wide as possible in the time you have available.

The Travelling Cacher Challenge series : UK

As mentioned above, the cache IS at the posted co-ordinates but can ONLY be logged as found if the rules listed below are followed!

In order to log this cache you must have successfully found a cache in each of 4 different Areas that make up the UK - England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland in anything up to 4 CONSECUTIVE days. (I did it in 2, can you beat me?) To keep it simple only Traditional and Multi-Caches count

I completed this in July 2014 with the following caches :

Druid's Corner GC4HYDX 19/07/14 Wales,

Off Yer Trolley: Festival Park GC2Q18Z 19/07/14 England

Swing Bridge GC54J0G 20/07/14 Scotland

Open says me (King John's Highway 2) GC3WD2E 20/07/14 Northern Ireland

The cache is a magnetic nano, not very exciting I know, but appropriate for the hiding spot and challenge caches are not generally good hunting grounds for swaps and trackables. Logs in these containers are notoriously tricky to extract so use of tweezers is recommended. The difficulty is set to reflect the challenge difficulty, not the difficulty of the cache itself.


Rules to log this cache:
 
 1. You must have finds on 4 caches in the 4 different areas in up to 4 CONSECUTIVE days
 2. This cache cannot count as one of your 4 caches above.
 3. Please demonstrate this logging requirement any way you see fit: text in the log (with details as above), create a Bookmark list, etc.
 4. Dates will be confirmed and logs not following the rules will be deleted.
 5. The Areas are England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
 
 Please replace the cache EXACTLY as found after logging.
