Geocache Description:


Near the summit of Cronk ny Arrey Laa (Hill of the Day Watch, 1434 feet). The container should not attract the attention of the passing muggle, but just in case, it's hidden away from the main path.

Climb the path from the main road. It's a good surface and not steep: only the last section takes any real effort. For a big hill, the approach is very amenable as you'll have parked at quite an altitude. Pass the OS column (trig point) and the huge cairn at the summit, and keep on following the path. In mist, use the parking coordinates to help with the return trip.

The find should be straightforward, so you'll be back at the parking spot within half an hour. But why not pause for a minute and admire the magnificent views (if it's a clear day!). ENE is South Barrule, NNW is Niarbyl, SW the Calf of Man and to the West is the Mountains of Mourne.

Part of the "Three Legs" series of caches. See the final cache (GC12AQM) for full details.

Make a note of the keyword you find written on the cache log book. You can use this in conjunction with the translation table (see GC12AQM) to obtain a three-digit number, which is part of the coordinates for Three Legs: Stabit. In this case, the three numbers correspond to A,D and G.
