The inspiration for this series was a most enjoyable day out geocaching the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation series by Mel and Ray
If you need further inspiration try this iconic E.T. series in Nevada USA
General Notes:
A suitable starting point for those wanting to complete the whole trail in one session is Bridge 37 on the A537 'Cat and Fiddle' Road to Buxton
Rail link:
There is an hourly train service between Kidsgrove and Macclesfield.
Bus link:
There is a very steep descent from #117 to the A50 road below, where there is a bus stop for the Route 20 into Kidsgrove. But descend with great care.
Hint for Power Cachers about cache logging:
Except for #066 all containers are 35 mm film pots.
Logging caches Policy:
We don’t mind cut and paste logs, we expect them. If you’re going to write something or post pictures you want us or everyone else to see, please use the cache page (KT Power #006)link
We also don’t mind this cache page being used for writing notes, saying when you will be coming or are looking for other cachers to team up with.
For a challenge you can also state in your main log entry here how many of these places you have or have not visited in the past. Or which were your most memorable visits?
