Geocache Description:


To celebrate their milestone, the 100th cache placed by Team Marzipan was called The Mother Cache (GC15RYZ). The object of The Mother Cache is for finders to take one of the ready-prepared caches, BUT ONLY if they are going to hide it as a Daughter Cache. This cache is one such daughter that has traveled across the River Dee to Wirral.

There are three stages to this multi-cache, and movement between stages can be by car, on foot or on bicycle. This is a residential area, and although all stages are available at all times, nighttime visits should be avoided. All stages are in public areas so there is no need to look in any private gardens etc. As with many Team Marzipan caches (and in particular their village vexation series) this cache may prove a challenge, especially to those who have not found some of their micros in the past.

Stage 1 at the listed co-ordinates is easy. All you need do is count the birds on the sculpture and add to N 53 23.280 and W 003 11.101 to get the co-ordinates of stage 2, which when found, contains the co-ordinates of the final cache. The final cache is one of their mini-micros, so please bring your own pencil/pen.

Finally, congratulations go to Team Marzipan for achieving their century, and for this ideas to help spread caches around the UK.
