Ranting about Ash Priors
#4 – Peg it
A short series around the Ash Priors common near to my home. The common itself is a popular spot for dog walkers, runners and cyclists alike. There is a high chance of you seeing grey squirrels, and on hot summers days (if your quiet) grass snakes, adders, slowworms and common lizards. The common itself is maintained by Taunton Deane borough council, but does have its own volunteer committee who frequently patrol the common checking for damages (so be careful).
The series can be undertaken any time of the year, although it will be muddy in winter. I personally recommend doing it via walking, but from the saddle of a bike is also good.
Each cache in the series leads onto another cache through fairly well maintained paths, although in some cases you may not be able to get a bike through the most direct route. I would also advise that you don't wear shorts as there are plenty of stingers, brambles, ticks and other nasty’s that are looking for their next meal.
The cache
I found a cache like this quite a while ago and thought it was such a good idea I had to do something similar. I have to give credit to georgewisker for the idea.
Be careful when leaving the GZ onto the road as cars tend to drive too fast along here.
Be sure to collect the bonus number and please write small. The log is only tiny.
This is my first series, so any feedback or even FP's are much appreciated.
Placed with kind permission of Taunton Deane borough council.
Happy Caching
