OSG01 Old Stamping Ground : View o't Naze Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

StriderGeo: Change is as good as a rest they say - my caches/routes have been up for years, so I have decided to archive most if not all - leaving the land open to others - although I may lay down some new caches myself later this year, if no one gets there first :)

Regards

Geocache Description:

You are seeking a camo tub with small swaps. BYOP. Please return as found

This cache site has views in the distance of Seat Naze (with the telecoms mast) and beyond that Cribden. The boundary of Stacksteads runs down the centre line of Fearns Moss.


Congratulations on a full 18 cache series joint FTF to the inimitable pairing of Bessieboots and WFG !

As a young boy of 10 I used to run over these fields which were then open and unforested; gorgeous and warm on sunny days, with uninterrupted views down the valley or over to The Naze, where every Easter a cross was erected.

This series is a self indulgence as it takes a trail around my old stamping grounds as a child. As I was born and bred in Stacksteads walking this route brought back lots of happy memories for me. I hope you have a pleasant time hunting and admiring the views as you go. None of these caches are particularly difficult, so they would be ideal for a family hunt. The only essential equipment needed will be a pen :) The route is approximately 5 miles long and should take 2 – 3 hours. There are no particularly steep climbs, but the paths are boggy in places so wellingtons or boots are advisable.
