Geocache Description:


Squirrel Nutkin


Nutkin

The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin is a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter and first published by Frederick Warne & Co. in August 1903. The story is about an impertinent red squirrel named Nutkin and his narrow escape from an owl called Old Brown.

This is part of a series of caches around Keele Woods which were placed for the Trees, Bees and Student Fees event.

The caches can be made into a circular encompassing the Hickory Dickory Dock series.

The woods can be very boggy, so walking boots or wellies are recommended, especially after rain.

Parking is free on any University car park on weekends and bank holidays and after 5.30pm on weekdays. Alternatively between 8.30am and 5.30pm weekdays, pay and display parking is available. See here for more information.

LOG ETIQUETTE: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
