Geocache Description:


Number 1590 in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box. The only rules are that they have to be able to be photographed together, be not more than 100 feet apart and the telephone box must be red.

 

Huna is a small remote crofting township, located 1 mile northeast of Canisbay and 1.5 miles west of John o' Groats in Caithness, in Scotland. Huna is likely to have been an important sheltered port from Norse times and it has been suggested that it equates to Hofn, the burial place in 980 of Hlodvar Thorfinnsson, the Norse Jarl of Orkney.

The post box is a pedestal-mounted lampbox and is made of sheet steel rather than cast iron.

Cache is a micro so please BYOP and tweezers.
