This cache was originally placed by Mark "TheCat" Thompson - a good
friend, dedicated cacher and founder of geocacheuk.com who sadly
passed away in September 2004. It has since been adopted by LeeCee
and is dedicated to Mark's memory.
The cache is located in a rocky area towards the top end of the
Glen with plenty of free car parking close by. While the terrain is
not difficult, the rocks can and do get slippery when wet so watch
your step and in particular keep an eye out if you have any
children joining in the search.
You are looking for a clear snaplock plastic box containing the
log book and a selection of goodies to trade.
Once you've found the cache there's plenty to see and do on the
Glen so why not stay a while and ride the famous Glen Tramway,
visit the countryside centre or refresh yourself in the cosy
pub.
Shipley Glen was one of Mark's favourite places and I hope you
enjoy it.
