Geocache Description:


One of the caches placed to coincide with the KT120 Bear With Me...I Can't Bare The Excitement event held on 12th October 2022.

There is a fantastic Facebook page called GAPS (Gates And Pointless Stiles). It's a destination for all the photos of the gates to nowhere and the pointless stiles we all see whilst out and about. Whatever it is, if it’s pointless it’s welcome to be posted there!

The cache is not located at the published coordinates. At the final coordinates there is an item that has been renedrered pointless. To find it, visit the posted coordinates, look at the black sign with white lettering and do the math.

A = Number of letters in the 1st word
B = Number of letters in the 9th word
C = Number of letters in the 8th word
D = Number of letters in the 3rd word
E = Number of letters in the 4th word

The final location = N 53° 08. A B B W002 25. C D E

Checksum of the five calculated digits = 23


The optimum way to approach the KT 120 caches is to collect the information in their numerical order, namely 120.1, 120.2 and so on. As you collect the information, the walk of around 2 ¼ miles will become clear. Don’t forget about the lab cache stages as you progress!
