Geocache Description:

Tunnel Woods is a new community woodland within The National Forest, owned by the Forestry Commission and opened for public access since 2003. It is made up of 34 hectares of opencast land, which was restored for agriculture and has now been planted with native tree species such as oak, ash and birch. This includes two sites planted by school children from across the area, as part of the Woodland Trust Tree For All Project.

Access to Tunnel Woods is by foot only. The main pedestrian access is via a public footpath off the A444 at Castle Gresley. The nearest car parking is in Mount Pleasant Road, which leads off the A444 on the opposite side to the entrance to Tunnel Woods.

This series of 4 caches consists of 3 traditional caches (2 small lock 'n' lock boxes & one screw top tupperware) and a 4th mystery cache (a slightly larger lock 'n' lock box) that will require the 3 clues from the other 3 caches in order to find it. All caches are camouflaged to make them a little bit harder to spot.

To find The Final (4th) cache you will need to note down the 3 clues from the first 3 caches and then complete them in the numbered order – you will need a pencil or pen as the clues might need a little working out. Finding all of the caches should take around an hour depending on the order that you do them in and how long you spend searching.

The quickest and easiest order to do them in is probably this GC2G73P, GC2G73E, GC2G72Z as the clues to the final cache lead on from GC2G72Z (The Concrete Box)

All of the caches have some small swaps in them to begin with.
