Geocache Description:


If you've seen what critics generally call one of the best movies of all time, The Shawshank Redemption, then you may remember the final scene.  You may or may not remember that Red actually has to find a geocache to get back to his friend, Andy.  There was obviously no GPS, but after Andy gave Red the 'coordinates':  An old rock wall at the base of an old oak tree in Buxton, it was all Red that needed as he persevered to find the hide.

This GZ isn't Andy's old oak tree... but it's certainly an old spruce.  And this may only be the remnants of an old rock wall, but hey, we didn't put these rocks here (as local geocachers 'scrunchions' would tell you - only crazy people carry boulders on trails).  Apart from the coordinates, if you need another hint, you'll have to watch the scene in the movie again - ust click on the picture below to do so.
