Geocache Description:


If you don't like confined spaces, water or the dark then this cache maybe isn't for you!

The coordinates will lead you to the entrance of a tunnel which carries the Bucks Burn from Howes Road, under Auchmill Road and out to Malcolm Road at the other side. In order to successfully complete this Letterbox cache you will need to come equipped with a torch and a pair of welly boots as a minimum, but waders may be better when the burn is in spate.

Enter the tunnel, go down the 'stairs' and then the cache is nearby.

Culvert

A tunnel carrying a stream or open drain under a road or railway.

synonyms: channel, conduit, watercourse, trough;

This is a collection of adventurous caches that I have placed around Aberdeenshire which all have high terrain ratings, and sometimes high difficulty as well. If you're looking to fill some of the gaps at the right hand side of your D/T matrix then these are the caches for you!
