It is not known how long The Track has been known by this name, but local people often refer to this path as such. Much of it is a track, whereas the rest is a narrow path. For us it is of interest as when the ‘me’ part of us moved to Thame in 1989, The Track was one of the first walks the family did in the area. The path in the wood can get boggy even in summer with few alternatives, and the youngest member of the family then aged 5 boldly walked into the middle of the bog with her wellies on and managed to leave them behind, stuck in the mud! It was fun trying to re-unite her to them.
The cache is placed in a tree opposite to what was White's Farm. Our family remember there being an old barn there. It always had a few cows, and chickens would be seen strutting around. These would usually be outside of the farm boundary. There were always cats as well, and probably mice and rats too! Occasionally we saw the farmer. In 2016, the old farm was pulled down.
The actual cache is unusual. The difficulty and terrain rating is not for just a simple find. It is IN a container, in a camo bag up a tree. Do not remove the camo bag from where it is tied. The large container is able to be removed without difficulty. For your own safety, you are advised to be on terra firma to sign the logsheet.
Please bring your own writing means, but do not supply your own paper if you cannot find the bona fide logsheet. Online log entries will be deleted if the logsheet is not signed.
Parking is recommended at the waypoint shown, but avoid weekends in the rugby season as it can be very busy with parking for those visiting English National League Division 1 side, Chinnor RFC.
Well done to HHHP20 in being the FTF!
