Following on from finding Devonport Leat - The End, I was very keen to find this cache as well, as I now knew the coordinates. This was going to be a very long walk indeed into one of Dartmoor's most remote areas so I decided to combine it with a maintenance walk which took in many of my remote Dartmoor caches. I made a very early start, walking by 7:45am and I eventually reached this cache shortly after 2pm.  I have to say I couldn't believe what I was seeing.  No sign of any sort of hide at all! A very long search ensued because I couldn't possibly walk all this way and not find the cache. However, I could not find it anywhere. I searched near the logical spot where the main stream starts and worked my way outwards in all directions.  Every time I found a likely hole I thrust my hand into it only to hit water a foot or so into the grass.  I have to say that the CO was not the most popular chap in the world at this moment, or indeed for the long walk back to my starting point, which I eventually reached at 7.30pm. So almost a 12 hour walk covering approximately 12 miles and no cache to show for it.

I resolved then that I wouldn't be returning to this cache until either somebody else had found it or the CO had checked it. However, today has just changed all that!  In order to write this log I had to return to the cache listing and I read through the end of it once again. It mentioned a spoiler photo! I then had to find my solution to the puzzle to get access to this spoiler and I was amazed. I must have seen this before but had forgotten all about it and certainly hadn't taken it with me. The CO admits that "this is probably my worse hiding place ever" and who am I to disagree with him!  I can now see exactly where this spoiler is indicating and I feel sure that I had searched that spot, but of course I cannot be sure, it really is just a sea of grass. I did take a photo looking in the other direction of where I made GZ. It has to be so close to that spoiler photo.

So I guess I will have to return, so watch this space Andy!
