Another reason to visit the Isle
Many are the reasons to visit Iona, but perhaps I shall persuade you of another.
Seek John Smith who lies in peace in the shadow of the Abbey and nearby you will find three unknowns - together. Stand and reflect on their sacrifice.
You will gather three dates and consider them in the format DD/MM/YYYY. Rank them in date order.

The cache, a small 1 Litre black painted click top box, is on Dun I - somewhere - at the location:
N56 IT.(I+J)H(F-Q) W006 IJ.(B+R)(W+I)B
The given location is the start of the footpath to Dun I. Use no other footpath to the top. The land around is all used by crofters, so please be careful to keep to paths and the cache itself is just 2 or 3 metres off a path.
This cache was placed with the permission of the National Trust Scotland, and in an approved location. If for any reason there are issues with the cache when you find it, bring it down to the ladies in the Heritage Centre who have my phone number and email.
