Geocache Description:

Mount Wood is a delightful wood left to nature, but maintained by the Forestry Commission to give interesting access for the public to explore. There are many bridges to cross on these paths which will eventually lead you to a small fishing lake with a pinic area.

Park at N52*54.987 W 003*06.051 and enter Mount Wood over the style. Take the first path on the left, which is about 15 yards from the style and marked with yellow topped posts. Follow this path along the edge of the woods to gain excellent views across the Cheshire and Shropshire plains.
Cross the 19 tree trunks (Some halves) keeping a beady eye out for the nasty troll.(This cache is not recommened to be visited when there is a full moon). Go straight ahead for the Troll's Treasure.
The original cache contents is:
A Big Marble,
A Knitted Head,
A Blood Donar Keyring,
A YHA Badge,
A Shower Cap,

This cache also contains the co-ordinates for Oak'em Poke'm which is also located in Mount Wood.
