Geocache Description:


The above coords aren't for the cache, but for a suitable parking area and the starting point.

The Chevin Chase takes place each Boxing Day morning. At 11am hundreds of runners assemble in Guiseley they then run up and over the Chevin and follow the paths round here, before returning over the Chevin to the finish.
