Geocache Description:

This is a multi stage walk with a puzzle in the middle. It is located on the outskirts of Westbury. It's under 2 miles there and back. It should be done during daylight hours. Most of the path is good and not muddy most of the time.

Underneath Lieth the Key


This cache consists of two micros, a virtual, another micro and then the final cache.

THE MICROS AND THE ANSWER FROM THE VIRTUAL ONLY GIVE YOU THE LAST THREE DIGITS OF THE NORTH AND WEST COORD PARTS. ALL GPS COORDS BEGIN THE SAME (N51º14.??? W002º12.???), SIMPLY REPLACE THE QUESTION MARKS ACCORDINGLY (PREFIXING ZEROS TO MAKE THEM UP TO THREE DIGITS WHERE REQUIRED).

* The first micro is at the published coordinates. It gives the NORTH part of an equation. It also tells you the location of the second micro. Follow path in a fairly straight line from here to the next location.
* The second micro gives the WEST part of an equation. It also tells you the location of the VIRTUAL.
* At the VIRTUAL location it should be clear what you should do to equate two numbers. Use these as described above to direct you to the location of the third and FINAL micro. It's not at the virtual location!
* The third micro tells you the location of the last cache.

Take a pen to write down the clues!

Note : I have now secured the final micro much better - I have attached the lid to a nail. Ensure that the lid is closed tight and secure when returning so it does not fall again. And don't drop it either!

Final words : Small children will need to hold hands at some points. There is water in parts, an electric fence along one small section and mind the barb wire near the end. Otherwise this is safe and a good walk for children.

Have fun looking for our first cache.
