As the title indicates, this is (The End) of my ‘Rock’ series of geocaches. Originally, 75 caches in 20 months - including: a multi; a puzzle; an earthcache; a difficult '5/5’ one and some mountain caches. Which I think, is enough (at the moment)! As an added incentive: if anybody manages to complete the whole series of the present caches, then I'll be very happy to meet up and buy you a beverage of your choice! Replace the natural coverage and please do not include spoilers in logs or photos!!
This is a peaceful cache at one of my favourite spots, called ‘The Meeting of the Waters’, because nearby is the confluence of the rivers Caldbeck and the Caldew. The local footpath follows the course of these rivers between the two villages of Caldbeck and Hesket Newmarket (where there is abundant parking). It can be approached from either end, and combined with the other caches in the area. Because of the very nature of this cache, and the fact that the path can get very, very muddy, walking boots are highly recommended. This Geocache was placed with the kind permission of the ‘Caldbeck and Hesket Newmarket Parish Council’.
I am a massive rock music fan and aim to give clues to each of my caches with reference to one of my favourite bands: The Doors were an American rock band that were formed in Los Angeles in 1965. Led by their larger than life vocalist Jim Morrison, they became one of the most controversial and influential rock acts of the 1960s, mostly because of Morrison’s lyrics, and his charismatic but unpredictable stage persona. After Morrison’s death in 1971, the remaining members of the band continued as a trio until finally disbanding in 1973. The Doors were the first American band to accumulate eight consecutive gold and platinum LP's in the U.S., and have sold over 100 million records worldwide.
