    If it's just down the road from MVnut I'd hazard a guess and say out generally Rolliston direction which also just happens to be an area the tagger once lived..
    Don't know for sure where MVnut is but searching his posts makes me think that general direction.
    Mmmm Burnham is a biut further down the road, I wonder if they have any rocky monuments or memorials with crosses on top?

    All just speculation on my part... I could just as easily be miles off but it kind of fits with the firey sky, maybe city or intersection lights on the horizon and what I thought was a hill I now think is a row of trees running along a long straightish roadside into the distance.

    If I was to post the additional photo it would turn the tag into a multi cache (multi tag) I reckon. Bascically you would have to get both for the tag. I've no intention of using it at a later date

This means the road runs towards/away from the city (generally NE/SW in the Rolly area). I recon that narrows it down to about 5 possible roads. Time to start riding

    Found but not claimed... note no bike in the pictures as I haven't been there.

    Tag6 in daylight as seen by google maps street view thanks to the help of a truck driver at work.
    He hasseled me about staring at the computer screen all the time so I showed him what I was hunting and told him approximate area.
    Turns out he had picked up onions in a field nearby once upon a time and bingo, when I went to street view near where he said, there it was.

    1 the rock
    2 looking toward city
    3 looking away from city.
    Also note I have no idea how old the pictures are so I guess the scenery might have grown or been eaten a bit since.

    I've decided all these old churches look the same...

    Yes, it's got hills behind it but... they all look the same after a while too.

    No crap! I could have sworn that was the first tag you guys had
    good thing is, this should be easy, even I know where that 1 is
