Ffedogad y Gawres Traditional Cache
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is one of 7 additional caches which can be treated either as a shorter option to the Meirionnydd Mountains series which would just involve a 4 mile circuit or if like me you like being out in the hills from dawn to dusk can be done on a single circuit with the MM caches on Rhobell. This would involve an approximately 10 mile walk. All of the caches are 200mm round screw top plastic containers with only a log book.
YOU WILL NEED TO BRING A PENCIL.
Parking is only really possible in a public car park (no fee) near Ysgol Machreth (Primary School) on the eastern side of Llanfachreth.
Yet another crazy cache name! The only explanation I have for why I chose this name is if you look on a 1:25,000 OS Map just to the east of here the name is on the map and may refer to the nearby woodland ( any suggestions to the originof this name welcomed). It translates as "Apron of the Giantess". Don't quote me on this but could it be Idris's Wife, of Cadair Idris fame?
The usual precautions will need to be considered before attempting these mountain caches. Strong walking boots, full waterproof clothing, first aid kit and map & compass (and ability to use them in poor visibility) will be needed.
