Cadair Idris - Llynnau Cregennen Letterbox Hybrid

This cache has been archived.

Victor4291: Due to a recent incident involving persons searching for this cache who allowed their dog to chase some nearby grazing sheep, i have been politely requested to remove this cache. My entire sympathy goes to the farmer, who, like many others have to suffer and tolerate ignorant and vile persons who are so thoughtless and ignorant to common sense countryside etiquette.
I have no hesitation in archiving this or any of my other caches that may lead to such happenings.
