Geocache Description:

A cache by a quiet Cornish creek.

This offset/multi cache is located os the south shore of Penpoll, a small creek on the eastern side of the Fowey river. The area is great for watching woodland & water birds or just enjoying a peaceful walk.
From the car parking location given below, walk a short distance along the narrow lane towards Mixtow. Climb over the first stile on the right & continue ahead over the field to another stile. Climb this & pass through the field gate on the left, continue to follow the small sign posts down onto the woodland path. When you arrive at the listed coordinates look for an obvious four digit number -
The third digit is answer "A".
Add the third & fourth digits together to find answer "B".
The third digit multiplied by three gives answer "C".
Multiply the fourth digit by two then subtract the first digit, this equals answer "D".

The cache can be found at - N50` 21.4AB W004` 37.5CD

You are searching for a 1 litre camouflaged plastic box.
Good luck & enjoy your walk which should take between one to one & a half hours.

Got a small boat, canoe or kayak? A very enjoyable way to do this cache is by water! Launch at Golant slipway (or Caffa Mill, Fowey for a longer trip) within an hour or two of high water. The start coordinates are close to a short path leading up from the shore to the main path. Have fun!
