Geocache Description:

The Quest for Akamas Stanley Part 2 The Dusty Trail

The is the second in a trilogy of four caches that will give you a vital clue as to the whereabouts of a fifth cache called “Akamas Stanley's Last Cache At the End Of The Universe” which will become part five in the trilogy of four. The caches can be done in any order, but you will need all four to get the coordinates of the finale. However, to avoid lots of doubling back, I suggest that you start from Part 1 and work through.

The caches have been set to take you on a trail of the Akamas. The journey is every bit a part of the cache experience as the actual position itself.

This cache is located just off the track. Not many people make it this far into the Akamas. The track to here, if you're coming from Part 1, takes you along the coastal road past all the Danger Explosives signs and through some areas where the track may not be obvious. Although the track off-road and can be difficult, it is not dangerous if driven correctly. If you feel the track is becoming dangerous, you have probably taken a wrong track and you should double back to find an alternative.

The cache itself is a grey plastic pipe sealed at both ends. Inside you will find the value of “B”. Having got the value of “B” you are one step closer to knowing where Akamas Stanley's Cache At the End Of The Universe is.

The Quest and the individual caches will all require a 4WD vehicle, especially the finale, and some good walking shoes.

To those who don't know the Akamas it is the last area of natural wilderness left in Cyprus and can be both remote and challenging in places. Be sure that your vehicle is in good condition, check the spare, and make sure you have water and a mobile phone with you. Don't expect to be able to complete the trilogy of five in one day, there's a lot of off-road and dirt track driving involved.

As always in Cyprus be aware of snakes especially when looking under rocks.
