Dalesman:
This cache appears to have been unavailable/in need of attention for some time. Would the owner please check this cache and repair it or give an indication of when it may be sorted out. Otherwise it should be archived.
If there is no response to this log after 30 days I will archive the cache. If this is done then it will not be undone, except in very exceptional circumstances.
In the meantime I am disabling it.
"Owner is responsible for visits to the physical location. You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time – normally a few weeks – in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing."

If this cache is to remain "live" then please add a review note (the "Write Note" option on the drop-down menu) giving an indication of your intended action.

Many thanks,

Geocache Description:

A short walk from Slag Reduction Way. Set near another of the mining tubs left over from the renowned Consett Steel Works.


The Drift is a path forged by Project Genesis with a view of the old Consett Steel Works. If you look carefully, you can see there once was a planting scheme to mimic steel flowing from the upturned tub. Sadly this is now just grass and weeds, but you can make out the shape if you look carefully .

The cache is a short walk up the path to a rusty old mining tub. The cache is just out of muggles view and reach!

Parking is available nearby on the road up to Berry Edge Estate.
