Geocache Description:


This cache, located on the northernmost inhabited island of the UK, should be easy to find - once you've reached the vicinity!

It's a medium sized Tupperware container, hidden behind/under a (smallish) rock, and it contains 3 US silver half dollars and some Shetland trinkets.

The cache is located in a nature preserve usually described as a 'moonscape', though it reminded me more of photos of Mars.

One commentator writes:

"the largest example of serpentine debris in Britain ... the area resembles what much of Britain must have looked like as the last ice age receded".

Parking is at HP 642 096. There's only room for a few cars, so don't all of you rush there at once...
