Geocache Description:

This series is set in Ringhay Wood near Lotherton Hall and is based on classic children’s board games - a good chance to have a clear out and to make our first series!

The walk should take no more than 1 to 2 hours and there are 4 caches with clues leading to the bonus cache – Guess who? All of these caches are hidden off the main paths among the trees so good footwear is needed and beware that GPS accuracy will be affected once under the trees so pay attention to the clues.

Free parking can be found at: N 53° 48.931 W 001° 20.221

There is only enough parking for a few cars. You can also park at Lotherton Hall which currently costs £3.70. It takes about 20 mins to walk from the free parking to the wood, just follow the track.

Don’t forget to write down your clues to the bonus at each find.

Buckaroo



The classic balancing game of suspense and surprise. Load up the moody mule as much as you can but be careful he might 'Buckaroo'! Gently saddle him up and load on your gear. Will he remain calm or will he kick up a storm and send everything flying? Pick a piece and stack it on. He'll make you jump with excitement as he kicks the load off his back! Be the last to load the mule without losing your gear, and win!

This is a horsey themed cache, so no horsing around when getting this one out and putting it back or else you will get 'Buckaroo’d'! It has plenty of equine swaps in it.
