by **ItsSpitting** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 10:21 pm

It's the channel between the Yarrow and Anglezarke Ressy's

Thats a "ding" for your second guess.. It is Coniston Water at 298925 or as near as doesn't matter.
Taken when we did "Swallows and Amazons" last September.
We landed at the jetty after finding the cache on Peel Island which can be seen in the picture.

We actually set sail from 296918 and made good use of the wind

by **Bargee** » Wed Aug 08, 2007 3:12 pm

Great

Try this one....

by **The Mars Bars** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 9:07 am

In desperate need of a clue...

by **Bargee** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 9:19 am

its a hilltop in the southern lakes, there is a cache on it too... 8-)

by **The Mars Bars** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 9:53 am

Latterbug cache on Latterbarrow Hill Grid Ref: 367990...?

by **Bargee** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 12:21 pm

Thats a DING!!

by **The Mars Bars** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 1:09 pm

OK taken pre caching days but there is a cache up there somewhere. 8-)

Not sure my knees would get me up there again though!

That's the coords for the top of the edge near the summit. Yes good enough.

The picture was taken much lower down looking up from somewhere near 54.52600,-3.00330

DING!

by **Foinavon** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 3:35 pm

I'm getting the hang of this now.

So where are team Foinavon below? You can see George has a tupperware box in his hand which might be a clue!

by **PopUpPirate** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 3:58 pm

I'm guessing a Langden cache but not sure which one

by **Bargee** » Thu Aug 09, 2007 4:10 pm

No Pup its a Charlie cache I think

Not been up there yet myself but thinks its Longridge Fell

SD 658 410

DING!
It is longridge fell, which is one of Charlie's. A very good cache, and there is another nearby one called A Loot on the Long Ridge which is quite an old cache.
