Geocache Description:

This cache is located in the Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, close to Ramscombe and the Greatwood camp.

We have all heard of the term HEP before - hydro electric power. In the geocaching world the same letters bring us hydro ejective power, meaning the use of water to snag a cache.

Cache container is a 2" white pipe, cache is at the bottom. If you plan to do this cache you will need at least 2 litres of water if you are very lucky, and 4 if you are not. Please bring that with you - be of good scouting nature - be prepared. Cache cannot be retrieved without it.

Coordinates were a little hard to get because of tree cover. Follow trail, cross over stream and it will be on your right hand side. Please be careful of muggles as the cache containers life depends on it not being discovered, hence the tight area. It is a log only cache, bring your own writing tool.

Please do not remove the cache container from it's location in any way - come prepared. You will find the cache log in the bottom of the pipe - your goal is to retrieve it using H2O, not brute force or tools.

We have utilised our previous experience of this type of cache to create this fun find for you. All credit must go to our friend and fellow cacher Ellspops for his creativity and permission to bring this type of hide over to this area. Help us rate this one.

A BIG THANK YOU to The Real Homer Simpson for looking after this cache after our return to Southern California!
