Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

The cache is located on the Barlaston Downs. A nice steady walk that shouldn’t be too hard for small children or elderly people. The cache has been placed on the path to a small stream with stepping stones where children, pets and you can enjoy the sights and play in the water.

This cache is unique. Unlike a normal cache when you have the cache in your sights you must complete a simple puzzle to retrieve the cache. (This puzzle can be bypassed by creative and monkey like children however we recommend completing the puzzle as it is what sets the cache apart from the rest.)

The cache is a large army ammo box initially containing lots of child friendly swaps. (Which if needed will be topped up.) As such the cache may be heavy so be sure to take care when retrieving it.

When retrieving cache please add to the natural camouflage (will be clearer when at the cache.)

This cache is placed with the kind permission of the National Trust and with specific thanks to Rod Whiteman and his ranger team for the brilliant work they do at the Downs Banks.
