Sweet 16 - I Spy Highcliff #1 Traditional Cache

Cache placed to celebrate My Son's 16th birthday.

Regular plastic tub, containing log book, pencil, swaps.

Parking is in the layby right next to the cache location, but you should take care with children as it is near to the busy A171 dual carriageway.

Wheelchair users will need help to access the final cache location.
 

To find Highcliff: Roseberry Topping is clearly visible here as the main high point in this area. follow the hill line along to the left where you will see a rocky hillface/outcrop. The purpose of this and other caches to be placed is to draw attention to the nearby Highcliff Nab from viewpoints around the local area.  The North facing Nab rises to an altitude of 300m and overlooks the small Market Town of Guisborough.  The nab sits along the Cleveland Way and can be reached by a number of walking routes in the area. It is popular with walkers and climbers alike who may be heading up to the North Yorkshire Moors or to test their climbing abilities. 

Moving to Guisborough a few years ago I have the pleasure of viewing Highcliff daily from my back garden (except when it's covered by mist or fog).  I am always struck by how different the Nab can look depending on the weather, sky and time of day - reflecting the different colours in the stone and is something I would like to share with everyone local or visiting the area.
