Geocache Description:


You will pull off the road as much as possible to get this cache. The posted speed is 50km/h, but many drivers speed down here.

PARK ON THE WEST SIDE of the road here!

PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS.

This series is called "Things that Fly" as I was inspired by my "main attraction" mid-way, and the related road names in the area. While some cache containers are duplicates to each other, many of them are unique.

 

Pixies can be "bad" or "good" ... You might compare this hide to a pixie. :P

 

Fun pixie facts from Wikipedia:
pixie (also pixypixipizkiepiskie and pigsie as it is sometimes known in Cornwall) is a mythical creature of British folklore. Pixies are considered to be particularly concentrated in the high moorland areas around Devon and Cornwall, suggesting some Celtic origin for the belief and name. Akin to the Irish and Scottish Aos Sí, pixies are believed to inhabit ancient underground ancestor sites such as stone circles, barrows, dolmens, ringforts or menhirs. In traditional regional lore, pixies are generally benign, mischievous, short of stature and childlike; they are fond of dancing and gather outdoors in huge numbers to dance or sometimes wrestle, through the night, demonstrating parallels with the Cornish plen-an-gwary and Breton Fest Noz (Cornish: troyl) folk celebrations originating in the medieval period.
