Description

A NEWISH WALK BRIDGE

 

 

This bridge  is right next to an excellent swimming and a place for long walks with the dogs or for the kids to have a great time.

Cache is smallish with just a couple of swaps. Watch for muggles.

Found it
Avoiding two muggle fishers was the biggest problem in retrieving this cache. The cache was a quick find once they were avoided.

Found it today. Water was many metres lower than the last time when I was here, but think it was not so much the high water as being missing (on that occasion) for that DNF. Nice to have it found. Thanks robtas.

Thanks for replacing the cache robtas. We roamed about for quite some time continually looking in what we thought were obvious places but couldn't come up with the cache, we knew it was there so we kept covering old ground and what do you know, it was there looking D in the face. Sometimes you just can't see the forest for the trees!... no it's not in the trees :)

I was almost ready to give up, after having looked in, on, under and around both the foot bridge and the main bridge. In a last ditch whinge I explained to my helper that I would expect it to be in the one obvious place, which I had already checked. Guess what? That's where it was!

I may have given up sooner than I should have, but there didn't seem to be too many hiding spots above the lapping water. In order to look up where I thought it may have been, I actually had to climb up and along part of the structure which put me hovering over the water. (It wasn't in that spot!). I couldn't see it, but I may have given up fairly quickly as there was so much water so high.

Another good hide, took a while to find this one as GPS had me looking about 10mts away from actual hiding spot.
Thanks again Rob, make sure when you venture up 'North' again you bring along a couple more caches to drop off..... :o)

With rebulus and gspblu we were able to locate and log this cache as part of our FEB '08 NUMBERS RUN.
It was amusing to watch one of our party scale part of the structure to reach a spot that another one of our team was convinced where the cache was... turned out it wasn't there it was somewhere way more easier than that!
Thanks robtas for being one of the 24 cache owners that made our trip a success.

The seed for this "FEB 08 NUMBERS RUN" germinated during our South Coast Chaos walk and now we have done it.
Finished work as early as possible, not early enough, on Friday and set of for Somerset. Managed about two hours sleep/rest and started 00:00 and finished at 23:54 today.
We had relaxed breaks for breakfast, lunch and dinner and achieved our goal with only nine DNFs, no injuries and were still smiling at the end.Big Grin
Thankyou for this cache robtas
