Geocache Description:

Puzzle cache, I hope it is moderately easy to work out, although
the puzzle is "challenging"! Coordinates are for parking, not the
cache location. The parking is on Quarry Hill, Ilkeston. Traffic on
Quarry Hill can be a little busy, especially at peak times. There
is no access to the cache location from the Merlin Way Industrial
Estate. Alternative parking at N52 57.298 W001 18.167, but please
be considerate and not block drives etc if you choose to use this
residential area.

Location N(C5)(F2) (E8)(E6).(I8)(D6)(G1) W00(F9)
(D6)(F4).(B6)(B2)(E5-D9) Small camo box, 6 feet up in an ivy covered tree, contains FTF badge, some trackables swaps, log and pencil. There is entry from the Quarry Hill end, but not obvious, you may have to try one or two apprent entrys before finding one
that leads to GZ. More obvious entry from other end, but there is a need to climb over a fallen tree from that end, so make your choice!

Congrats JJB8 for FTF
