Geocache Description:


DUE TO THE LACK OF INTEREST IN TACKLING THIS CHALLENGE AS A WHOLE AND THE DIFFICULTY OF MAINTENANCE IT WILL NOT BE MAINTAINED AS A SERIES AFTER EASTER 2023. AFTER THIS DATE THE VOWELS AND BONUS ARE LIKELY TO BE REMOVED WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE. IF YOU ARE ATTEMPTING THE SERIES AND GETTING CLOSE TO COMPLETION AT THAT TIME LET ME KNOW AND I'LL LEAVE A CACHE IN PLACE FOR YOU BUT ASK THAT YOU TO REMOVE IT WHEN YOU VISIT.

The Alphabet Challenge consists of 25 caches plus the final (Z).

There are 5 individual series consisting of 4 consonants giving information for the vowel in each group.

The order of caches to find,

A needs B,C,D,F.

E needs G,H,J,K.

I needs L,M,N,P.

O needs Q,R,S,T.

U needs V,W,X,Y.

Z needs A,E,I,O,U

The GPS signal at the cache site should not present a problem.

You will need to take a pencil/pen for the log.

Please note there is no longer parking at Harford Gate.

Alphabet Challenge S is a straight replacement for the muggled GC1287J. If you have done that cache there is no need to do this one for the series but you are quite welcome to visit and log it.

This is a klip lock box hidden near Spurrells Cross on Dartmmor where the monks route from Buckfast Abbey to Plympton Priory meets the Wrangaton to Erme Pound track.
