Geocache Appreciation

Hiding gecoaches for others to find can be rewarding. It can also be quite time-consuming. First you have to identify a suitable hiding place, then you have to create the cache itself, hide it, write a description and possible devise a puzzle for it and then create the listgin on the geocaching.com website and finally get it approved by a Grounspeak Reviewer. After that you have to maintain the cache thoughout its liftime.

So, it is always good when people write nice things about your cache in their logs and a recent log on my ‘Watery Wales 1‘ series of caches by ‘scrap happy annie’ made it all worthwhile.

The log said:

Now this is all what geocaching is about – bringing us to beautiful areas we would never have known about.

Thank you very much for this wonderful series of caches – I was in awe at all 4 of them.

This was our first find – we did it in a heavy mist and did not realise the lake was there until my husband nearly fell into it! It gave him a bit of a shock and me a bit of a laugh. The mist cleared whilst we were signing the log – what a lovely place.

Left a great container geocoin here because I am so impressed with this fantastic series of caches – well done to forcesofnature for concieving such a brilliant set of geocaches.

Thanks Scrap Happy Annie…. Glad you enjoyed them.
