Title: He’s Gone Up The Tree!
Location: Writtle, Essex
Camera: GoPro Hero 3+ Black
Extras: GoPro Pole / GoPro App
Notes: More geocaching adventures today. This time Alistair and I went to find a couple of tricky hides. One was up a tree! Alistair loves climbing trees, so was more than happy to shin up the branches to begin the search. I stayed feet firmly planted on the ground – but did quite a bit of searching of the lower boughs with my GoPro on a pole! Handy. Sadly though, we didn’t find the cache despite a thorough look. Oh well, we had fun anyway.
