Lesser Spotted Navar #4 Traditional Cache

RobboAndMum: Archiving as part of a mass archive of all our Navar caches. We noticed today when on a walk around Lough Achork where our "Night Night Navar" cache (GC51X03) was based that it seems the "hide destroying, cache saboteur and cache thief" had yet again been to one of our hides. Multiple clues for various stages were missing and very obviously recently rummaged for where applicable and in some cases the damage to the natural environment was beyond what any genuine cacher could possibly do when searching. Finding a way marker at Night Night Navar where at least 3ft of moss has been removed from an entire tree (all the way around it) and the waymarker itself missing was the final straw for us to say night night to the Navar caches in totality. We suspect we know who it is but let's leave it at that. With this sort of activity we can't guarantee that everything will be there all the time in often hard to reach areas and we don't want the few and far between people who are looking for caches to not find them for one reason or another. We do regular checks after high winds/floods etc but can't keep up with deliberate acts.

We have been considering removing some or all of the caches from Navar for a while due to the massive deforestation works that seem to have no end - whilst it is a working forest, so much has been removed and so many of the views destroyed, the place is not even a shadow of its former self. That, along with already having had to remove some of our favourite caches left us with a list of keeps and archives following an audit this evening. But the keeps on their own only serve to remind us of what is not there anymore and as such, all cache containers, clues, etc, will be removed in due course.

We know lots of (well a few) people had fun here and that made it worthwhile for us - reading the logs always made us smile. Hopefully anyone who had Navar on their to-do list has done so already.
