Geocache Description:

BACK TO COLLEGE (BONUS)

Back to College is a mini-series of 3 caches hidden around College Reservoir and Nature Trail.  In order to find the third cache you will need to get the co-ordinates from the first 2 caches.

On 12 September South West Lakes Trust celebrated the re-opening of College Lake Nature Reserve and its western footpath.

Closed to public access for over twelve years due to inaccessible paths the site is now open for local residents and visitors alike to enjoy. College is a quiet site with a variety of habitats including wet woodland, standing water and broadleaf woodland. It is host to much wildlife including a good bird population, otters and a variety of bat species.

This cache is placed with the kind permission of South West Lakes Trust (thanks to Rick).

This cache is not at the published co-ordinates, if it were you would need a boat! You will need to retrieve the first two Back to College traditional caches to get both parts of the co-ordinates for this final bonus cache. You are looking for a classic type of cache, it contains a logbook, pencil and a small army of swappables!

Once you've retrieved the Bonus cache you may wish to continue around the lake to pick up the Master Yoda cache on the East side, however be prepared for some pretty serious swamp terrain! I would not recommend taking children or dogs...

FTF prize is some wax for your surf-board!  Tow Mater trackable also inside and ready to go on his travels!

Congratulations to Hamperman on FTF for the 3 cache "Back to College" mini-series
