+Happy Chappies Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Greetings from down under. This is probably a long shot, but worth a try.... While holidaying in the UK recently we were doing quite a bit of caching around Scotland. At one point we were at Plodda falls (I think that's what they were called), near Loch Ness, by the village of Tomich. I had no internet reception there so didn't bother taking the phone as we went for a walk down to the falls. At the bottom I got that sense that said "there must be a cache around here somewhere" so started poking around a nearby tree and, lo and behold, there was a cache! Was I ever delighted! Signed it and headed up back the path very chuffed. However, now that I'm back home - I notice that the cache in question doesn't seem to exist. It doesn't appear on the map, with this cache (http://coord.info/GC3TM03) being almost at the same location, but clearly not the same. (The one I found was a simple micro hidden in tree roots, not a challenging swim-cache like this one!) Anyone have any idea if this is an archived old cache? It had other names in the logbook but I didn't bother to check the dates. I've also checked OpenCaching and couldn't spot it there either. Any ideas?? Many thanks, Eddie (Happy Chappies) Quote Link to comment
+T.D.M.22 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 old cache. Throwdown cache. Other site. Final to a multi or puzzle(at one time the final locations where not given to reviewers so older caches won't show up in proximity checks, and may be closer than 161 meters. Quote Link to comment
+castagnari Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 The nearest archived/unpublished cache is a little short of 2 and a half miles from the cache you mention, nearest active cache a quarter male away. I'd go with the "throwdown" theory. Quote Link to comment
