Short Walk Caches

Today we combined three of a series of five short walks, all located not to far from our hometown (7 Km or so).
The first one was (GCK388 - AKW V - De Heuvelsche Putten).
First we had to follow a junction map.

We had to find four numbers linked to the next four objects that we passed along the route.

The walk lead us through some nice country area.

We logged the cache at 12:30 and it was our #44

Inside the box we discovered TB Echo:

And a Canadian Coin:

Next we visitid family to drink some coffee and after that we continued with our hunt of today.
The second walk was (GCK387 - AKW IV - Het Dommeldal) a 2 Km walk in some wetlands beside a small river called Dommel.

We had to do the walk and measure the meters in between the four gates that we had to pass to come up with the coordinates of the cache-box. That we discovered at 15:10.

We logged it as our #45.

And to finish up the cache trip of today we went for (GCK386 - AKW III - Het Vlasroot) a 1,5 Km walk around a little marsh called Vlasroot.

We had to find three signs and use parts of the GPS-coordinates of their locations to constuct the cache coordinates.


We logged it at 15:50 as our #46.

This series (AKW) consists of 5 caches and one final bonus cache. We did three of them today, so we're halfway in this serie.
