This is my third visit to try this one.
The first time I did not have the spoiler photo, it was late in the day, and there just seemed too many places to search, especially as it was in 3 dimensions.
The second time I did have the spoiler, but only as a photo on my Oregon and in bright sunlight it proved to be of little use. Not only that but it was extremely windy and it al seemed rather precarious.
Back again today during our week on Jersey I came better prepared with a printed spoiler, and with the knowledge of a fairly recent find (by a cacher who I had coincidentally met doing a virtual cache on a railway station near Frankfurt just 10 days ago, during the Mainz Giga event weekend).
Today the conditions were much more comfortable and I could search without fear of being blown off. Even so the spoiler seemed little use at first, until I concentrated on the background in the photo to adjust my search to the required vertical position. Once there I realised that the foreground matched the photo as well, but vegetation growth ment that was not obvious at first.
As the previous finder says, the cache is in excellent condition and looks like it was placed very recently.

Oh my.....went out to get this one today, Jerseys one and only OC, not a million miles away from Jerseys first cache too (I think unless it was named ironically!). A proper stank over from the supplied parking....what's that big "P" on my map about halfway along the path no worries, because I can JOG! So I did, most of the way, I was nearly a puddle when I got there, that's ok, I can spend 20 mins looking for it and slowly burning to a crisp! Gave up, after turning the place over, as I was scrambling out I spotted a decent crevice, not sure if it's the same as the spoiler? And as luck would have it there it was! Happy and dry as the day it was placed I'll wager. What a fab spot and really happy to manage to track it down, even better that there was a rather special pathtag held inside, one that will be very welcome in my growing collection! It's taken all week, but at least I can say I have a 100% strike rate for something caching-realted on Jersey! Great cache Sir, doff my cap to you, even if it nearly killed me!! Wonder if there are any Terra....no, no I'm not even going to look . TFTC

Came at the cache from the opposite direction to the recommended one as was doing a Geo nearby.
Took quite a while as both my and my caching buddy Big_Bean's GPSr's were all over the shop! When I resorted to cache sense to find it instead of GPS it eventually fell into my hands.
Cache was nice & dry and only found once before (from another site), TNLNSL
(may be back for swaps another day as some of the contents caught my eye....)
