Geocache Description:

A traditional cache set in Irvine Valley's woodlands.

Now, everyone has a phobia of some sort... whether they like to admit to it or not. In this trail we are going to investigate some well known fears, and some lesser known fears.

The woodland is one of those sorts that doesn't see much sunlight, so good boots or wellies are a must.

So what is globophobia? Another slightly odd one, this is the fear of balloons. I have no idea why anyone would find these pieces of rubber scarey, but hey ho! I did know someone who was scared of balloons which always made it interesting for my sick little mind at parties!.

One of the celebrity heavy weights who has this irrational fear is Oprah Winfrey. All that money and all that success, and 50p from the corner shop can have her trembling at the knees!

As for the cache you will be pleased to know there are no unwanted or unnecessary micros in this set, just good old fashioned standard caches. Bring your own pen as the cache does not contain one. I would advise parking at the waypoint, wander up by the cairn and enter the woodland over the brow of the hill.

Over to you and happy hunting.
