Geocache Description:

The co-ordinates given are for a suggested parking spot near the Leather Smithy Pub. The cache is not located at theses co-ordinates.
This is a Multi Stage Cache which will take you on one of my regular routes around Macclesfield Forest, Which is Circa 9km and usally takes 2 1/4 hours, and thats without searching for any caches.

At each stage of this multi you will pick up the co-ordinates for the next stage. All stages are are on or just off the main tracks.
Don't forget to pick up the other caches en-route.
I have also put a camera in the cache so feel free to take your photo. But don't forget to let me know when it is full so i can get them developed.

Stage 1: To get you started you are looking for a micro cache at these co-ords, N53 14.562 W002 03.745

Stage 2: A micro cache

Stage 3: A mirco cache. At this point you could take a short detour up the track to pick up "Back of Macc Forest" cache(GCKGWC). Also en-route to the next stage you can pick up "Walter Smith Memorial" cache (GC11N2T)

Stage 4: A micro cache. Don't forget to pick up "Frank Bakers Tree" cache(GC180G2) on this next stage.

Stage 5: Time for a quick bit of maths.
David's 1st date minus 1739 = AAA
David's 2nd date minus 1960 = 0BB.
N53 14.AAA W002 04.0BB

Stage 6: A micro cache with the final co-ords. And don't forget to pick up 'Walls end' cache (GC60DE) before you reach your final destination.

Remember stealth may be needed at some points of this multi cache. And don't forget to replace everthing as you found it.

CONGRATULATIONS to Gover 100 & RedMinx for the FTF
