  1. Sounds very much like the trip we made in August - you'll love it! I'd recommend: For Whom the Bell Tolls - a beautiful spot near Cromarty River Ness - Greig Street Foot Bridge - a nice cache and dash if you're walking around Inverness Sutherlands Grove west coast kippers - these two are in a lovely woodland park with a stunning waterfall Rocky views - a great coastal cache Dunnet Head (Caithness) - has to be done, the most Northerly point of Mainland Britain West is Best (Ardnamurchan Point) - and the most Westerly point! Etive View Fungi Tree - these two are in what I considered the most beautiful glen near Fort William - mind the midges near the Fungi Tree though!!
  2. Here's 0ur 2006 Grand Cherokee LTD out in some of the snow earlier this year:
  3. Thanks for your replies! Karon, yup I've done the Hucking Ramble and Tom's Treasure Chest - it's the best cache I've found so far!
  4. I've been Geocaching for around four months now and have found over 230 caches and I thought I'd share some thoughts and ask some questions, hope you don't mind Geocaching has got me out and about far more often than I used to - I've always enjoyed walking but now there's a goal, a reason to be in a particular place and even a way of keeping "score". Whereas I used to gaze at a map and design a random walk of a particular length and then walk it, I now download all the LOC files from an area and join them up via paths - makes deciding where to go far easier Searching for caches has taken me to places I never knew existed, some beautiful, others strewn with litter and fly-tipped but all interesting and new. Some caches have been incredibly clever, many are 35mm containers under a stone and some are just plain funny - micros in plastic hedgehogs, full-blown wooden treasure chests. Some you can spot from afar, others take a long search but all give that satisfying "Yes!" moment as you find them and sign the log. As you can tell - I'm hooked! So, the questions if I may: What's your technique for caching in a busy, "muggly", location like a high street or outside a tube station? What time to people like to cache? I prefer early morning, when it's quiet and gently warming up. What's the "best" or favourite cache in the South East? I have more but that'll do for now So - thanks to everyone for placing caches, TFTC really doesn't do them justice!
