+minstrelcat Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 As my better half and I are only 4 short of 500 caches, we'd like to do a memorable cache for our 500th - but it needs to be in the southeast somewhere, preferably as close to Kent as possible. Any recommendations for a good milestone cache! Many thanks Lisa Quote Link to comment
+*bingoboy* Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 (edited) I did my 100th a year and a week ago at Royal Observatory Greenwich Cache (GCK7HH) but I'm sure you would have done that one -- just checked and you have not Edited January 8, 2006 by *bingoboy* Quote Link to comment
Jantaculum Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Our favourite Kent cache was GCQK8J - Ding Dong (um... have to admit we've only done a couple of caches in Kent - but if you read the logs you'll see lots of good comments) Can't explain more without giving the game away though!

Jantaculum Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 OOPs sorry - ignore that - I should have checked more carefully first Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Dan's The Ring (feeling too lazy to do you a link, sorry!) proved popular for The White Family and many others to hit their milestone on. It's a little way around the M25 from you, but if you take an extra few miles up the M40 you could do Messe's Alpha Quest Y, which is also becoming a popular milestone cache. Quote Link to comment
+Learned Gerbil Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 (edited) I would recommend - Reigate Mini Multi Ramble. Expect some walking, expect some mud, but the views are stunning and there is plenty of history and nature along the way. It took me about two hours to do so it is not dash and cache! Bet off all, the car park has some well needed refreshments, and there are several other nearby caches. Edited January 8, 2006 by Learned Gerbil Quote Link to comment
+minstrelcat Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 OOPs sorry - ignore that - I should have checked more carefully first Yes we tried that one already - and hit a technical hitch! Will get back there soon. Lisa Quote Link to comment

That looks like the sort of thing we're after - but not much chance of getting the other 3 done on the same day by the looks of it. Lisa Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Not in daylight at this time of year, no. Bring torches... actually, it would be possible as some of the stages (without giving too much away!) bring you close to other caches. I could mail you a list of other targets if you fancy...

+Alibags Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Yeah, there are seveal quickies that I can think of nice and close to the various parts of The Ring. Like SP, I would happily give you a list, and if you need it, be a PAF for you, as there are one or two places where you may appreciate having one. Quote Link to comment
