According to legend the last wild boar in England was killed here during the 16th century and is tucked up in the tomb of Sir Richard Musgrave in Kirkby Stephen's Church.
Although the cache is near a path running along the top of The Band it is fairly cosy with fine views south over Swarth Fell. You can sit by the cache and drink your coffee while you watch the kestrels hovering nearby. There are a couple of nice limestone coffee tables. Wild Boar Fell is an interesting mountain and it's worth allowing time to wander around its flat top and explore the nooks and crannies. The trig point, cairns and old mine workings (where I thought about placing the cache - too exposed) are all worth exploring.
There are many routes to the summit of the fell, the easiest probably being up the footpath from Little Ing Farm. It will be interesting to see the routes people choose.
The following route to the cache is only one possibility. It is the one I took to explore the fell and place the cache and is about 9km in total.
Park at Cotegill Bridge (at one of the roadside spots just south of the bridge e.g. N54° 22.065 W002° 20.951) and head up north side of Near Cote Gill until you get to a footbridge (N54° 21.926 W002° 21.404) then drift off over Foulmart Hill towards a fantastic little tarn at N54° 21.858 W002° 22.102. Pick a route roughly North West heading towards an unexpected sheltered possible rest stop at N54° 22.002 W002° 22.367. Carry on picking your way through the boggy bits to join the main path up the fell at N54° 22.388 W002° 22.932. Once you've explored the fell and found the cache your choice of descent will depend on how adventurous you feel and on the weather and visibility. I descended through the gap between the north end of Low White Scar and the south end of High White Scar but this would be dangerous in poor visibility. I visited the waterfalls just to the west of Aisgill Farm then walked south beside the railway back to Cotegill Bridge.
