When: Saturday 9 June 2012, 10am
Where: Meet at the above coordinates, then walk the Chain Walk from East to West; cachers who would like to stop for some socialising but do not wish to walk the Chain Walk are also welcome, although depending on the tide and time the socialising may happen after the walk rather than before. Anybody wishing to provide support in the form of a lift back to the start is definitely welcome to offer! It may also be a good idea if cachers who take part in the walk exchange phone numbers with cachers who won't, just in case there's a problem and we need to call somebody.
What: For information about the Chain Walk see this page or this one.
The event is organised as a side event to the Bydie at Nydie camping event, following discussion to join forces to do the Chain Walk; of course, cachers who aren't attending the camping event are welcome to join us too!
Note: Parts of the Chain Walk are only accessible when the tide is low enough; low tide on the day of the event is at 1:52pm, and we expect to finish while the water is still going down, but even if it takes longer than expected we'll have plenty of time to leave! Tide tables can be obtained here.
It is expected that the event will last about 2 hours, although this is subject to various factors such as how long we explore around or maybe just stop in some nice spot and chat if the weather is friendly; in any case, we'll leave the chain walk by 2pm to make sure we don't get caught by the tide.
After the walk, either return to the start the same way, or via another path which is accessible at high tide; alternatively, with enough cachers and cars attending, it may be possible to obtain a lift back to the start. These decisions will be made on the day depending on time, tides, etc. (I will be cycling to the start and leave the bike there, but I suspect other cachers will be driving).
For people who are so inclined, there are caches near the start/end of the walk, as well as on the walk itself.
If there is any need to change plans, these will be posted as announcements (to get email notifications of these, either put the event in your watchlist, or log a "will attend"). Of course, I hope there won't be any changes!
Please remember that you are responsible for your own safety. Going as a group will be safer than attempting the walk alone but please be aware that there is an element of danger involved.
Unless we get trapped by the tide and need to wait until evening (which is unlikely as we'll have hours to spare!), it will be possible to attend both this event and the Flash Mob in St. Adrews, as there will be plenty of time to travel from one event to the other.
