Much Ado About Nothing is a multi-cache with a mystery start, somewhere along St. Mary's Road in Port Erin. The coordinates given are for a parking place near the start of the trail. The route will bring you back to St. Mary's Road. A hat and waterproof boots are advised as it is exposed and muddy. As it is a farm trail, please keep dogs on leads. Older dogs may have trouble getting over the stiles.
The coordinates of the first micro can be found in the text of Much Ado About Nothing by William Shakespeare. The micros on the trail will give you just the last three digits of the latitude and longitude. Special equipment is needed to help you find the first one.
Before you decide that you need some knowledge of the play to attempt this cache, let The Bard reassure you.
Our doubts are traitors,
And make us lose the good we oft might win
By fearing to attempt.
Measure for Measure, Act 1, Scene 5
