Sarah and I continued to this one after finding the previous cache, 'This one's for Fred' a little further upstream. It was a very pleasant walk in the autumn sunshine until we realised we were going to have get down a steepish, leaf-covered bank to river level. We saw the item mentioned in the hint but decided to walk past it until a suitable place for getting down appeared.
Eventually we did find a place and then had to walk back to GZ along the leafy river bank. Once there Sarah found the cache container fairly quicky and she did the admin whilst I took a few photos. Then it was back up the short but steep and slippy bank to the footpath at the top. Although I didn't actually fall, being of portly shape and size, it took me a couple of tries before I found a successful route back up.
On the way back to the car Sarah wondered how the cache owner knew that Oscar honed his hunting skills down here - it seems so far from any houses. Anyway, a good little place - we enjoyed it in spite of being in a cemetery!
