These Geocaches have been set out for the 11th Mega Piratemania with the cooperation and Guidance of the Forestry Commission and their Ecology team.
Mega Piratemania is a gathering of over 500 Geocachers gathered together once a year in a Pirate theme.
This year is the 11th event so therefore the 10th year of events. Usually held the first weekend after the Schools break up for the summer Holidays.
Its a family fun weekend that roams around the UK.
This year we have been lucky enough to be hosted by the Forestry Commission Dalby Team and we thank them for their Help with the event.

With a Break from the normal Pirate based themes of Cache names we are highlighting some of the flora and fauna that can be found within North Yorkshire Moors area.
Anthyllis vulneraria reaches 5–40 centimetres (2.0–15.7 in) of height. The stem is simple or more often branched. The leaves are imparipinnate, glabrous or with scattered hairs on the upper face and silky hairs on the underside. The flower heads are spherical in shape and 10–20 millimetres (0.39–0.79 in) long. The petals are yellow in most sub-species, but red in A. vulneraria var. coccinea. Flowering takes place between June and September. The fruit is a legume. The fruits ripening takes place from July to October.
Kidney vetch is the food plant of the small blue butterfly larvae and the leaf miner, Aproaerema anthyllidella.
