first batch of 5 : Westwall SW of Aachen

The first batch started good, its in a forest, so cant be bad :-) (see list below). The first one is at the bottom and so up.
Love these bunker themed caches. Sadly these ones here are mostly ruines of caches, sometimes nothing more then a pile of concrete rubble.
All finds were quick and obvious.

The Christmas cache was a LARGE container, the first one we find. Great walk thru the forest to a beautyfull area with the sun piercing thru and a clearing along side the hill. Beautyfull. My wife was cross with me for not telling her more about this cache, the idea of the cache is to gift wrap a goodie to put in the cache, I forgot about this and she would have wrapped a gift. She loved the idea! Bad points for me.

The DNF. We got to Ground Zero allright but with the high trees the signal was poor and sadly the hint was no good to us : needle in a haystack kinda cache.
But again the brilliant scenery disolved most of the frustration.
Just noticed this one has a spoiler. Didnt see that during prepping. DOH. Would surely have helped.

This batch of 5 gave us a 5.5km forest walk with plenty to see. First time we get to see and walk thru a vehicle obstruction line from WW2. The picture is from that border near Aachen. (more info)

Then we head back to the car for a bite and refreshments and afterwards set off to do the planned multi Schmugglerpfade on the other side of the forest.
