Geocache Maintenance
As an owner of several geocaches, it is my duty to maintain them every now and then, so yesterday I went out in the rain to visit a few of my boxes dotted around the local countryside.
The first was along the Afon Clettwr, where I had a nice, peaceful walk along the riverbank in the pouring rain.

I’d forgotten to take my GPSr with me so had to remember where I’d hidden the box, but after a bit of searching soon found it. The box was a bit smashed, but the contents were in good condition. I did remember to take a spare box with me though so replaced the container, re-hid it and then headed back off to Borth.
The next stop was a geocache overlooking the little bay of Aberwennol. This involves a little walk along the Ceredigion Coast Path from Borth up to the war memorial. This of course provides some nice views of Borth, despite the miserable weather.

The geocache here was actualy in really good condition, despite the fact that someone had reported that it was wet.
I then headed to Clarach and along the Ceredigion Cost Path for a little way. There has been quite a bit of erosion along here and the path has been diverted in a few places. Unfortunately I didn’t quite have time to get to the geocache along here as I had to turn back before too long so that I could do the school run so maintenance on this ‘Sarn Cynfelyn’ and ‘Seascape’ will have to wait for a another day.
Once again though it just goes to show that it doesn’t matter what the weather is doing, it’s nice out there anyway.
