Geocache Description:


This is a series of Christmas themed caches placed around Epping Forest named after Santa’s reindeer's and based on Christmas films. Rudolph was lucky enough to host our first homemade Christmas themed Geocache but only lasted a year in the elements so has been replaced with an upgraded version with lots of storage for swaps and trackables. GC9K0RA

The phone signal can be limited so recommend that you download before you cache and can be muddy under foot. 

We hope you enjoy the series.
