Geocache Description:


In the novel "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" by JK Rowling, Ron and Harry miss the train to Hogwarts and decided to borrow Ron's Dad's car to fly back to school. With two teenagers flying a car, what could possibly go wrong? After a long flight, when they are within sight of school, the car has engine troubles and plummets towards the ground, landing in a large willow tree, snapping Ron's wand in the process. Clearly not happy about the imposter landing in it, the tree starts lashing the car with its branches.

Ron's wand has remained hidden in the whomping willow ever since. It now contains a cache for you to find. 

While you are unlikely to be belted by this whomping willow as you search, you may need to keep an eye out for muggles at the nearby playground. 

The old Ford Anglia Harry and Ron flew into the whomping willow.
