This is one of three caches placed at the northern end of the Helvellyn range on the ‘Dodds’. They are all situated at over 2,500ft. A Dodd is generally regarded as a 'compact, rounded summit.'
Stybarrow is the mid height Dodd at 2,770ft. In 'A dictionary of Lake District Place Names' Diana Whaley suggests a meaning of 'the hill by the steep path.' The cache is a small tupperware box containing only a log book and pencil. There is room for TB’s and Coins. The cache is a tat free zone.
The cache is located at the western tip of the ruined wall north of the summit. Please see spoiler. You only need to move one stone to reveal the cache.
The cache is placed with the permission of United Utilities Thirlmere Office.
