Geocache Description:

THE RACE IS ON!
A cache near Neilston Quarry, a popular climbing spot. Postcode G78 3.
Last owner check: 23/10/12.

Neilston Quarry was the first place I ever went rock climbing, and I still go there on occasion. The rock, dolerite, was mined in the 19th century. There are some nice views from the top, which is easily accessible without climbing the rock face.

Container is a 1 litre plastic clip-lock box, wrapped in a draw-string bag.
Original contents:
FTF red ‘jump for joy’ pathtag
Moon and stars trolley token
Deck of Cardcaptor Sakura cards
Red die
Ceramic bear
Gold dragon pin badge
A Yu-Gi-Oh dragon cards
Log book, pencil and GC note
FF#7: Derkesthai dragon TB (FTF, please take this to begin it on it’s journey)

Park at N 55° 46.363 W 4° 26.048. Enter the quarry area via the metal gate and head past the left side of the quarry. Keep going straight ahead, through the newer trees, until you get to the older, thicker woods. Turn right and follow the vague path.

Congratulations to Arthurlie for FTF!
