Today I was invited to join heartradio on a little caching adventure at Birch Tor, to look for just a few caches, including this opencache, in the glorious sunshine. We found the first stage very quickly, and armed with a set of coordinates we continued our walk. This is an area I'm particularly fond of, and have great memories. As a child I placed a Letterbox not too far away (sadly now missing) at Vitifer Mine, in memory of my great great grandfather who worked in the mine, Ernest Harvey. I also planted a tree very close to that Letterbox, which grew rather large over the last 25ish years (maybe a little more). Anyway, I'm digressing now, so we headed up to the Tor where there are some beautiful views, and still a little bit of snow present from last weeks deluge. Once at GZ we began searching, and heartradio made it known he'd found the cache. The nice sized box was retrieved and the admin was carried out. A lovely opencache, in a great location, it has been many years since I last visited this location, and it was a very pleasant return.
