Geocache Description:


There is limited free car parking at Nether Booth itself, where the first cache can be found. Otherwise park in Edale and walk across the fields to Netherbooth.

The route is one of the easiest up onto the Kinder Plateau. Starting at Nether Booth, it takes you roughly North East to cross Jaggers Clough and then on to Crookstone Hill which then takes you North West up and onto the Kinder Plateau. From there it is less than half a kilometre to Crookstone Knoll itself where you can add the eponymous cache GCN93H to your list.
Crookstone was formerly known as Crockden Moose in 1640 or Crookston in 1767. From Crookstone Knoll, on a good day, the views are amazing, whether East to Ladybower Reservoir or North to Alport Dale.
Energetic cachers can do a circular trip from Nether Booth, up Jaggers Clough (9 caches) and down from near Crookstone Knoll (11 caches); or even the other way round!
