This is another of our circular walks of around 6.5ish miles containing 14 caches, 6 contain part co-ords for the final 'bonus' cache. All the info you need to work out the final co-ords are in the boxes. This series will take you round some of the quarries local to the area and to add a bit of fun we have named each part after a song, see if you can remember any of them on your way round!
Don't worry, you aren't climbing the cliff in the picture-thats the view from the cache.
Please take notice of the terrain rating for this one as it is one of the steepest and slippiest footpaths we have ever come across. If you look at it and don't think you can safely manage it, it can be accessed from the top. Most should manage it ok though.
Once you have crossed the bridge, head on up and follow the signs through the yard and past the ancient crane to get to the caches namesake.
At this point the way isn't that clear, but follow the dirt path which is just to the left (don't be tempted by the path on the right) heading straight up to a clearing where you will see the cliff face. Aim for the ivy covered section and you will see the beginnings of a rope handrailed path leading to the right. Follow this and your Gps to the aptly named cache.
Once found, in the words of Simon and Garfunkel, you are indeed Homeward bound.
