Geocache Description:


Note: Do NOT try to drive, walk, wade, kayak or swim through any floodwaters. The water can be deeper and moving faster than it appears and you (and your car) will get washed away. If the river is in flood, do NOT attempt this cache.

This cache is located where a road (name unknown, but likely called Woodstock Road) used to cross the Bremer River via a bridge. At the intersection to the east of the cache, you will see this sign advising you that the bridge is now closed:

However when you arrive at GZ you will notice that there is no bridge here. Nor are there any signs that there ever was a bridge here. The bridge was closed in the 1980's after it was damaged in a flood. I remember coming here in about the late 90s/early 00s and seeing an old wooden bridge that had partially collapsed. Now there is nothing left of the bridge, I wonder what happened to it?

There are 3 different routes to approach this cache from, I'll leave it up to you to find the best one. If you come in summer, you should be able to drive to within about 30 meters of the cache. However, in winter you'll need a boat, or a motorbike. Or maybe even a tractor. Walking might also be an option. A ladder would also be useful if your tree climbing skills aren't up to scratch. There is a spoiler photo in the gallery if you need help finding the cache.

Do NOT try to drive, walk, wade, kayak or swim through any floodwaters. The water can be deeper and moving faster than it appears and you (and your car) will get washed away. If the river is in flood, do NOT attempt this cache.
