you are looking for an oblong tupperware-type container having the
usual log book, pen and pencils, A light pen, Bookmark, tissues, a
brass cello, glass owl and other items. Also half the co-ordinates
to the Virgo cache can be found on the back of the information card
and on the inside cover of the log book.
The Brown Moss Nature Reserve is home to a lot of water fowl and
fungi (Aside from the fact that many of these are poisonous, please
also remember that this is a nature reserve and leave them in
place). Recommended parking is at N52°
57.023 W002° 39.007 Other parking is
available around the reserve. Multiple paths throughout the area
range from soft and boggy to buggy friendly. Please be careful when
retrieving and replacing the cache as there are a lot of muggles
about.
A big thanks to the Shropshire County Council Countryside
commission for their permission and assistance in planting this
cache.
The ducks would appreciate any donations of bread offered to
them. Wholemeal or brown bread is recommended.
