+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) I'm putting together a bookmark list of tidal island caches, i.e those where access on foot is only possible at low tide, and would appreciate info on such caches. The current (very small) list is here. http://www.geocaching.com/bookmarks/view.a...e3-7275cc18f256 Edited January 5, 2007 by McKryton Quote Link to comment

+Kryten Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 Hmm, interesting, I think it counts but I should probably make the trip to check and make sure, after all you can't be too careful. Quote Link to comment
