Introduction

I've been caching since 25 June 2009 and currently have over 1000 caches. I usually have a great time when I am out and about and often have little adventrues. So I thought it was about time i started writing up about my caching adventures. Oh and my caching name is A1nnie - hence the blog title!

My most recent successful challenge was quite a tricky one. The caches are each given a difficulty/terrain grade from 1-5, with 5/5 being the hardest and 1/1 being the easiest. This one I got yesterday is D4.5/T2. Quercus Robus #2 (GC2HT4H) is a puzzle cache and it took me a little while towork out, fortunately my caching pal, happileigh, was able to provide some guidance which helped me work out the co-ordinates night before last. Then I had to wait all day until I finishedwork before I could go traipsing through the very muddy footpath to find the cache. It was in a tree and took me at least 20 minutes to find. It was a tiny disguised nano cache. An excellent cache. I gave this one a favourite point. You earn a point for every 10 caches you find and can issue them to caches that you particularly like. There is some inconsistency about what people do with their favourite points as they are quite a new addition to the website.
