Situated in the west pennine moors overlooking Healey Nab. Its not a long walk to the cache, but its over difficult terrain and tough gradients.
This is the first Geocache we have made, which we hid late at night as not to arouse suspicion.
This cache is located at Black Coppice, a short (but hard) walk from White Coppice, with views of Healey Nab. The cache can be found at the given coordinates.
Black coppice is a quiet area with few visitors, you will be unlikley to see anyone up here.
The way we walked the route was from White Coppice, following the main path south west between 'The Goit' and 'Stronstrey Bank'. A small footpath then breaks away from the main track, picking its way up Stronstrey Bank. A wall intersects the path, at the other side of which the path continues (very steep) to the top, this area is Black Coppice and is where the Cache can be found.
The cache is a five litre plastic tub with screw on lid. It is amongst the heather and long tuffs of grass.
Amongst the items originally placed in the cache were:
-Log book
-Helen's Danish Geocoin (TB17DMP)
-Norms mini sport TB (TB19D21)
-Some other things!
Please ensure when replacing the cache (if you found it) the lid is screwed on tight and the cache is covered.
