Brady’s Pioneers

Well, time for something different. How about a multi, in a cemetary?  A really old cemetary – where pioneers rest, and their headstones contain the clues to finding the cache!

Bring on Brady’s Pioneers – located in a small park close to home which we didn’t even know existed.

That’s the amazing thing about geocaching. You are guided to all these wonderful new places and experiences that would otherwise go by unnoticed.

It was fun locating the headstones and using their clues to get the final coordinates for the cache. TeamWolfie encountered one Muggle, but he and his dog kept his distance whilst maintaining a watchful eye on our activities. And a great little cache it was. This was Guy’s first find, and TeamWolfie’s second find all up. The interesting location, the thrill of Guy getting his first find, go together into making this cache another of our favorites.

Guy's first find - well done, mate!

Brady’s Pioneers was also to be our very first discovery of a geocoin, which we did not remove on this occasion.

Well done, Guy.

Go Ask Charles

After securing our first find late yesterday (Dragon’s Lair), it was time to try our luck with some more Geocaching. We thought we’d start with a Multi-Cache that’s close to home.

A multi-cache is a type of hunt where you a guided to one location to obtain some clues, to then go to a second location – from there either getting more clues or finding the cache. Go Ask Charles is such a multi-cache, and is close to home too. It is in fact, our “closest” cache officially, but not closest to get to given the geography of the area.

Charles was pretty helpful, in providing us the clues to get to the next part of the multi, which we solved quite readily and were now heading in the right direction to the location of the cache.

Sadly, on this day the cache was not to be found. We still have lessons to learn about finding caches.
