Just out of curiosity does anyone else on here geocache?

 

I'm just short of my 70th find. Just had my first one published.

 

Best experience so far - picking a cache up unnoticed in the middle of a festival

 

Scariest experience so far - being chased by a stag from a cache as I replaced it. Amazing how fast I can run.

 

Always a fun time and the most exercise I had in years

Good heavens labrat. how exciting being chased by a Stag.

Scariest experience so far - being chased by a stag from a cache as I replaced it. Amazing how fast I can run.

This was the log for that one in full

 

Where to start?

 

Got to what I thought was closest point and spotted a trail that seemed to lead roughly where I wanted to go.

 

Found cache right at end of trail and also quicker way back to the path. Partway back to path hear a Rustle in the trees and ran into a stag. Hurriedly moved down path to where I left wife and kids and signed log

 

Now the issue was how to get the cache back in place? Stag obviously had claimed those trees

 

Sneaked back the long way around I had found first and placed cache back. Stood up to see rear end of stag moving down path.

 

Started making way back to path before realising stag was heading directly towards wife and kids.

 

Fortunately a jogger going around the lake scared it away from them. Unfortunately that meant it was now coming my way. It saw me in its trees lowered it's head and accelerated. So did I.

 

Fortunately aforementioned jogger choose that moment to move up the path and once again chased it into woods

 

Whence me, the wife and kids carefully moved onto a safer cache...
