Geocache Description:

You are looking for a microtube with a companion :) BYOP and tweezers


Congratulations on a full 18 cache series joint FTF to the inimitable pairing of Bessieboots and WFG !

From here it is but a short stroll back to your car, assuming you parked somewhere near to the start cache, perhaps in the layby on Fearns Moss. I hope you have enjoyed this series as much as I enjoyed setting it :)

This series is a self indulgence as it takes a trail around my old stamping grounds as a child. As I was born and bred in Stacksteads walking this route brought back lots of happy memories for me. I hope you have a pleasant time hunting and admiring the views as you go. None of these caches are particularly difficult, so they would be ideal for a family hunt. The only essential equipment needed will be a pen :) The route is approximately 5 miles long and should take 2 – 3 hours. There are no particularly steep climbs, but the paths are boggy in places so wellingtons or boots are advisable.
