Geocache Description:

The last one of the series.

THIS IS A NIGHT CACHE, that means it should be attempted in the DARK and you'll need a TORCH.

The given coordinates are a marker for this page,you cannot drive there, the cache is not there, does not give a clue or anything else in particular!


dark forest
You will be walking on an existing footpath, just stay on the obvious path until you see two larger markers near each other on the right hand side; just before a stream. At the first marker turn right and up, about 25ft from the path at the base of a tree you'll find the cache hidden under fallen branches. Please make sure the cache is hidden when you leave.

To make this a circular walk - continue along the footpath, turn left at the footpath marker and down to the road; turn left and follow the road back to Parking. In wet weather this may be muddy and quit slippery under foot, apart from the road bit obviously so you may want to walk slightly to the right of the footpath - you'll see when. The Terrain Rating may increase to a 3/3.5 for a short distance after completing this cache if you decide to make it a circular walk.

The bonus:
You should have been collecting numbers at each cache so after you have found this one you can continue to the bonus cache - it is outside the forestry and not on the path you have been on, it in a easy access area near to a parking area. So you may want to drive to the other parking area unless you’ve chosen the right one to start.

Please leave plenty of feedback and feel free to contact me for any reason. If you want any info before attempting these caches please email me.

Just before the stream there are two larger markers. 3 paces after the first large marker turn to your right - a single marker on a tree shows where to look.  Please make sure the cache is hidden when you leave.
