IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THIS SERIES, PLEASE CONTACT THE SERIES OWNER (SEE BELOW)
We are often told (correctly, if somewhat ideologically), that geocaches should take us to somewhere "interesting", and not simply be placed just for the sake of it. The aim of this series is to try and adhere to this ideal by basing caches around details given on an Interpretation Board about the area in which it is situated. By definition, it is hoped that this information will be "interesting", and will help the cacher discover things about the area that would often not be revealed by a traditional cache.
ABOUT THIS FYI CACHE
This is a straight forward multi-cache near the river in Evesham. As you may guess from the cache name, this area does flood. Do not attempt this cache if the meadow is flooded.
The cache can be found at N 52 05.ABC W 001 55.DEF where
- A= The run off comes from where? A = number of letters.
- B= On the river, what is the first thing you can spot? B = total number of letters in both words
- C= Willows are tradionally pollarded at 1C feet.
- D= Two amphibians are mentioned. D= number of letters in both words minus one.
- E= Last digit of the year the club was founded plus one.
- F= The number of mammals mentioned in the last paragraph.
The cache can be found a short distance away, hopefully high enough to be beyond all but the worst flooding.
I hope that you find this an interesting variation on the caching experience. For a full list of all FYI caches in the series, please go to https://www.geocaching.com/bookmarks/view.aspx?code=BM4RZ8H
