Hi Folks,

 

My father inlaw has seen a gecocache container with a sticker on at Beaulieu areodrome in the new forest. The contents was empty except for a peice of paper inside and the lid was off and it was full of water.

He emptied it out and put the lid back on and rehide the item where he thought it should be.

I am unable to see any caches at this location on the maps and dont have the co ords.

 

Any ideas???

Working from N 50° 48.447 W 001° 30.284 the site threw UP GC189NB as the nearest active cache, but that's over 1.7 miles away. However I'm wondering if it's the remains of a unpublished cache from way back in 2003.

 

This might help confirm it

Long Description

Container is not disguised and is a tupperware container about 6" x 6" light blue top and clear base.It contains a variety of bits and pieces including a compass - two AA type batteries - thermometer (digital) some glass beads - velcros strips - a map of where you are - variety of coins - a small tourch - log book -pencil - and some other bits. Help your self but please leave anything in return. Thank you.

 

This one was placed on the general area of the Beaulieu Aerodrome (RAF Beaulieu)

Hi Deci,

This sounds like it maybe the one, it was fully exposed and matches the description above. We have done the whos knocking on ovens door and its not that one and all the others in the area seem miles away.

It can't be a puzzle cache can it? Not many puzzles in this area though.

My father in law is happy to collect it and remove it the next time he is out and about if no one comes forward soon. We don't want to leave rubbish in the forest after all the hard work people have done to get the permissions we need to place caches in the forest.

 

Thanks for your help.

I'm just down the road and I'm listed person for dealing with all geocaches in the forest, If you give me the co-ords or whatever then i'll go and collect or whatever.

certainly no puzzle caches ending in the area or any other caches that i can think of that would be there.

 

PM me :P
