Geocache Description:

This is a recycled cache container, rescued from a previous circular which was muggled and abandoned in a muddy riverbank. This is a medium sized tupperware box, which is big enough to take many swaps and trackables. Your GPS is likely to bounce around due to the tree cover, and I have set the difficult to reflect this.


This cache is placed and named in an area, based upon the entrance from the parking area for Vivian's Copice, which was a frequent fly-tipping point, and the entrance and much of the woodland was strewn with rubbish. Much of the rubbish has since been cleared, but you can still find a fair amount while walking through this area.

The name is after a favourite book of mine from my childhood, and I aimed to place it as a celebration of my 100th find, and to give back to the geocaching community for others to find. It's actually ended up being to celebrate my 500th, but it is now out there! The cache container is recycled which is fitting with the name and theme behind the cache. I encourage everyone to read the book, with the same name as this cache, to understand recycling and dumping rubbish that bit better. 

You will notice an obvious path through this woodland which will lead you to the cache. It is not suitable for children due to the nature of some of the rubbish that can be surrounding this area at times.



Congratulations on FTF to Saddlesore1000!
