Travelbird Series

In our region a series of Travel-Bird caches exist. Caches of different type with bird names, hiding a clue for the final of the series. Earlier we already visited two travel-bird caches, but we had still three caches left of this serie.
For one of the travel-bird caches it is necessary to get hold of a certain TB (TB Huismus), that has a key connected to it that opens the cache. We track this TB for a while now, and on Sunday we received a notification that this travelbug landed in a mystery cache (GC18DRW - Memoriekruis), that I was able to solve rather quickly. Early evening Monday 26 April we decided to give it a try in gathering the TB Huismus. We drove 60 KM to the south and could find the cache and log it at 18:30 and we took the TB.

Yesterday we went for the cache of the Huismus (GCTTRM - TB4: De Huismus) which we could find easily and log it at 12:45. It was hidden in a bird-house as all caches of this series.

Boring that caching, the boys are relaxing and looking around. We hadn't walked a long part, so the bears still waiting for that big walk.

Next we went for another one of the travel-bird caches (GCTTRQ - TB3: De Gele Kwikstaart) logged it at 13:15.

And last but not least we had to find a cache to drop the TB Huismus in again, it only allowed to stay in a cache in 20 KM radius from his home, and we decided to leave it in the cache (GCGD5X - Woudlopers 6: Aards Paradijs)
This cache was a hard one to take. It took us on a hike in a beautiful area, but with very steep climbs and descents.
But we had to find clues on very original spots. We had to climb ropes.

Climb in "Snake"-pits.

Use tires to cross "canyons".

And climb three hills.

The dogs could walk up quicker than we could.

But we managed and on top of the hills the view was rewarding.

Here we are descending from the last hill and on our way to the cache-container.

Isn't this a beautiful area?

This is the profile of the walk in this beautiful paradise, making it visible how steep the climbs and descents were.

But the reward was high when we found the container and could leave the TB behind, we logged it as our # 236 at 19:15.

Today we went for the fifth and last of the Travel-Bird series, (GCTT2W - TB2: De Valk), a short multi.

Again a bird-house that hide the cache.

Logged it at 14:15.

With this last one we could figure out the coordinates for the bonus (GCTTRK - TBB: De Ekster)

A spider decided to go and live in this cache-box and a lot of spiderwebs with catches were inside and on the jar that contained the stash.

Logged it as our #238 at 15:15.

Finaling a very nice and fun to do series of caches.
