Geocache Description:


Can't see the wood for the HAWTHORN Trees

Placed near to Hazlemere Recreation Ground, there are many footpaths that lead across the countryside from Hazlemere to Downley and also to Hughenden. There is an abundance of British trees and wildlife here. I felt this would be a good opportunity to create a set of caches with a similar theme. After placing a cache at a nearby conservation area, I found the ideal theme for a set of caches within the area, particularly one that leads away from the busy community that is High Wycombe and the surrounding villages. This cache is a 35mm black film canister, it has been placed within the ivy vines on a hawthorn tree, on a footpath bordering the Hazlemere Recreation Ground.

 
I like my caches to be found, and I am always happy to help you find / solve them, but, the rules of geocaching are:
 
1. Find the cache.
 
2. Sign the logsheet and log it online to say that you found it. 
Any online logs without a signed log sheet will result in online logs being deleted. 
 
3. Return the cache exactly as you found it. DO NOT TAKE IT HOME

*28.03.2021* The cache container is now very different to the original cache. Please refer to the hint for further information. 

Congratulations to Sarasdor for the FTF!
