This is a lovely little spot with an amazing view and you don’t need to be a goat to get there!

Please take care when you’re foraging around, you’re approx 2-3 meters from the cliff edge which runs along the coast The ground is stable, secure and well walked.

The first and only waypoint will take you directly to the final location where you can sit and admire the view while signing the log sheet. Final cache is a small camo container (large enough for coin / small swag exchange.

When placed it contained the geocoin: Destination Sweden, to Xrim (visit link)

This is an amazing Geocoin on it’s way for a race to Sweden!

(Please take care when replacing the coverings for the final as it’s a popular hang out for the local kids at night)

It’s a Bug’s Life, fun cache for kids of all ages

Two bugs and a bugs house is what you are looking for.

Flik and Hopper have lost their way home, it’s a big world out there when you are just a little bug trying to get back to your rock!

At the start coordinates you will find Flik hiding, use the information he gives you to help him find Hopper..

When you have both bugs, just find them a home.
