Geocache Description:

The Kings Power Trail was created because there were no caches on the King Vaughan Line. As we drive it almost every day, we noticed that there were so many potential cool hiding spots. The brothers had lots of fun putting the trail together. Hope you have as much fun as we did.

The trail runs the entire length of the King Vaughan Line and then some. Please be careful there can be a fair bit of traffic at times. Pull off to the side of the road as far as possible and be cautious when getting out of your vehicle. Some of the caches have parking coordinates, please use them. They have be selected for your safety.


King of England from 978, following the murder of his half-brother, Edward the Martyr. He was son of King Edgar. Aethelred tried to buy off the Danish raiders by paying Danegeld. In 1002 he ordered the massacre of the Danish settlers, provoking an invasion by Sweyn I of Denmark.In 1013 King Sweyn Forkbeard of Denmark landed in England and was proclaimed king. Aethelred II the Unready fled to Normandy but was recalled in 1014 on the death of Sweyn. War with Sweyn's son, Canute, occupied the rest of Aethelred's reign. His nickname is a corruption of the Old English 'unreed', meaning badly counselled or poorly advised.
