Auchincruive Ayrshire

A nice walk down the south side of the river Ayr at Auchincruive trying to find 3 caches today, but we only managed to find 2, and that was by a chance meeting of the CO (cache owner) of the caches we were trying for.  He gave us a hint for one as we told him we had spent far too long at this particular  hide.   So on the way back from our second find we stop to search once again, and again we could not find it and after getting a clue as well!    Never mind we can go back another day.

In the photo below you can just make out hubby returning the cache container.

Then it was time for tomato soup and some fruit for lunch by the river.

Where we stood (too damp to sit) and had our lunch.

This style has a cache which is very well hidden beneath it, there is a large piece of wood attached to one of the steps with a large ammo can screwed into it, very clever.  We found this one last year.  We thought we would check it was still okay as we were passing by.

I stuck the camera underneath to see if I could show you, but this is what I got, I think that is the large piece of wood and the ammo tin is screwed into it on top of the wood which is well hidden

We also managed to find a cache with the chirp on the GPS, no I hadn't heard of a chirp either!  the co-ords go in the same way but there isn't any information until you reach near to the area where the cache is, then once it beeps up comes the hint.  This is what we found at the chirp cache, nice big black container.   This is the same type of container that is at the style one.
