Town: Bridlington

On this afternoon Caching we attempted to find 2 Caches around the South beach of Bridlington.

Tracy Joined to help me on this search as Mrs M was feeling a little green around the gills.

The co-ordinates for the first cache took us to a metal structure holding up a piece of modern art work, from all the clues given the cache was a magnetic nano hidden underneath the structure but alas we couldn't find it. There are far to many hiding places and this is definitely better suited to a gang hunt.

The picture above shows the hiding place.

The second hunt was more successful. The cache was about 1km away from the previous cache, well hidden underneath a concrete 2nd world war bunker. The Beach on the South side of Bridlington is very large and provides a nice backdrop for a pleasant walk. We were fortunate enough to catch the RedBull Kite surfing championship which was being held on the beach that afternoon - truly impressive stuff.

Town Bridlington.

This was the final find of our holiday and what a nice way to end, by finding a cache that we had previously failed to find.

This cache is situated near the Bridlington Priory and Bale Gate Museum.
Both are well worth visiting, with the Museum proving to be a really interesting way to spend an hour. Bridlington really suffered during the war and all the evidence is here.

If you get chance to walk around the Priory then take it, it's very interesting inside.

This was a multipart cache through the nature reserve at Bempton, which we did whilst staying in Bridlington. Some of Becca's old uni mates helped us.

A truly great cache where we saw many birds nesting of the cliffs including Puffins.
Before we could find the cache we had to find information from 3 points first. This is one of the best caches we had done.

We left The Two Seasons of December - Gold Geocoin, and picked up a nice Geocoin.

Today we went out to see the cliffs at Bempton whilst on the way to find a cache and we had a very enjoyable couple of hours there bird watching in fantastic sunshine.

Bempton Cliffs are famous for it's bird colonies and wildlife and it's easy to see way - there were literally thousands of birds flying and there are 5 really good vantage points from where to see the birds or to take nice photo's.

We even managed to see a puffin or 2.

After the birdwatching we went to find a cache is nearby Buckton, unfortunatly depsite the cache being found the day before we came back empty handed.

What a great Cache and what a great evening.
We parked at the recommended parking position and had a great 1.5 k walk to the cache.

The walk took us along the banks of the River Humber and I never knew how pretty the location was. The walk took us along right next to the river and along a white stoned beach. The weather and the views made this cache one of the nicest we have done.

The final of our finds on this night took us out into the countryside, and the find was made difficult by supplied GPS coordinates led us some way away from the cache and we ended up needlessly searching, climbing through bushes. This led to a gumpy Bex ;-)

Everynow and again it's good to come across a cache which you can't find, as geocaching needs to be a challenge.

A group of us set out for a nights geocaching and we were beaten by our first cache, which is hidden along the banks of a drainage ditch next to farmers fields.
Unfortunatly the nettles were really wild at the moment and after much stinging we decided to move on to the next cache and we will revisit this cache later in teh year.

Study the tree formation on the board and working in an anti clockwise direction counting upwards from Revenge which is 0, you will find the full coordinates for the final cache location.

A - Defence, B - Colossus, C - Temeraire, D - Bellerophon, E - Achille, F - Mars.

Pictures Taken whilst looking for a Cache

2009-05-01T21:56:00.000+01:00

Today we completed a multi-part cache in Flamborough, which included a very nice work, whilst using clues to find out the location of the cache.

Unfortunately even though we found the location of the Cache, we couldn't actually find the cache it'sself before the rain caused a swift retreat.

I've attached some nice pictures from the quiet walk.

Our Geocaching Adventures.

Geocaching is a high tech form of treasure hunting using GPS co-ordinates.

To help us I map Geocaches on Google Maps and use the GPS functionality of my trusty T-Mobile G1 mobile phone, to help us find the cache.

This blog is to be used to keep an online record of our finds.
