Geocache Description:

Somthing to see and somthing to solve 

A collection of caches placed near interesting art installations or somthing to see. However, it's not as easy as that


The cache is at the location but is a puzzle box which needs to be solved to access the cache log

 

 

This is part of a growing number of caches near local interesting things around bury, bolton, North manchester, Rossendale and bacup.

The caches themselves are at the coords but must be unlocked to access the cache log book.  Some of the puzzles in this series are easy, some not so easy.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A PEN AND SOME PAPER BEFORE ATTEMPTING.  NO SIGNED LOG AND YOUR CACHE FIND WILL BE DELETED. I WILL KEEP THEM MAINTED AND CHECKED AND LOG BOOKS REPLACED WHEN FULL BUT HAVE SOME PAPER JUST IN CASE

If you are stuck on any of the caches then you can email or message me while in the field as I can often reply quickly to help.

This particular cache can be attempted as a park and dash but I urge you to spend some time looking around the East lancs railway and the nearby bocholt tree which is part of the irwell sculpture trail.  From the cache location you can see the ELR art gate through the trees

you can take the cache to solve in the car if you like as long as you don't lose any parts and replace it where you found it, with the puzzle mixed up again.
