Geocache Description:

This weekend is an event weekend but I don't think we'll be seeing The Golden Cache on the canal today.

Join us at Tardebigge Bottom Lock from

2pm - 4pm

Boaters and land lubbers welcome 

 


Spanning the globe and the seven seas, we introduce you to the infamous Captain Mary Hyde. Her ship, The Golden Cache, was the fiercest, and the bearded buccaneers and sea legged sailors reported to her. Legend has it that she ruled the high seas for many years, and found no shortage of riches throughout her reign.

We’ve come upon a battered letter, found in a bottle on the shore near Geocaching HQ, with the infamous crest of Captain Mary Hyde. It seems there is one last treasure yet to be found.


Care must always be taken around canals, the banks can be very dangerous especially in wet or icy conditions and the water can be very deep with unusual undercurrents. Do NOT allow children to search unattended for caches, for their safety. 


Having checked for other Events for this weekend, looks like this will be the only one within 20 miles of Birmingham or Worcester, a daunting prospect for us. Don't let that put you off though, you'll be more than welcome.
