Rainforest 0 wreck-hunters 1
We located one of the wreckage piles from this crash site, whose close-packed spiky vegetation and deep ground cover defeated us (as it has many others) previously. Result!
Note that the coordinates below are plus or minus around 25m, (rather than our normal 5m) due to interference with our GPSr signal from the dense tree cover, so here's some additional assistance: there is a stream too small to appear on the 1:25K OS map in the vicinity of these coordinates. Close to the side of the stream is a really big boulder, the largest we saw in the wood. You should more or less be able to see the wreckage from this boulder.
Location: SH 84043 23682

Good finds how close did you get on the previous look? will have to wonder over there soon and fit in the mosquito !
Search patterns overlapped, but this site is around 75m from the centre of our last search. Annoyingly,the woods are far less dense and spiky where the wreckage is than where we searched last time.
Sorry you couldn't have been there...
I know still fuming ! but new car soon thinking of the Berwyns soon try to get the p-38 and spit before winter if you can get over this way again !
Is that you or the car still fuming?
Superb effort, thanks for getting this one, it's been bugging me for years as it was one of the first sites I looked for and didn't find. I'm amazed by the grid ref as my best guess was still a long way from this location. I'll drop you an e-mail for more advice when I go as I want to see it for myself,
Keep up the good work,
Rob
Cheers Rob,
we found it with a bit of navigational advice we haven't put on here, which I'd be happy to pass on...
additional nav advice is on the post now...I could say another couple of things which would make it easier still...
