Just taking a trip to a childhood location and added some caches onto the GPS while we were in the area! We only did four but they were part of a much bigger series, in total there are 72 caches! I'm not even sure it's possible to do in one day.
SA36 The Sussex Amble
This cache was by no means fun to get too. We were up on a footpath on the other side of the river and crossing was not much fun! We fought threw lots of brambles and dead ferns to get onto the right path. When reaching the location it was hinted to be a fallen tree but there wasn't one in site. I stuck my head in a bush and behold I could see a tree inside. It was very over grown and I had to wrestle to get inside the bush. The log itself was wet and hadn't been signed in exactly a year to the day (spooky!)
Stick your head in!
SA35 The Sussex Amble
Walking along the path, the clue was "above your head", the GPS took us to another tree but had no luck, I walked down the path slightly and checked out this tree.
Safely nestled away onto in the trunk! Wet log though, even though they seem secure.
SA34 The Sussex Amble
This was an easy find and not hard to get too, located at the bottom of a birch tree. Log was full and slightly wet but not as bad as previous ones.
SA33 The Sussex Amble
Locating which pine tree was the correct pine tree in a clearing of pine trees was a pain! Easy to spot though and log was better condition than the others.
We were walking for an hour and twenty minutes but we were detouring off of the caches to explore so an accurate time to find them would have been around 30 minutes or so. We walked 4.3km - 2.6 miles. The terrain can get hilly and steep, also sandy and flint paths which makes it harder. A nice area although it's changed a lot since when I came, lots of trees being cut down despite it's National Park status.
