Motorway Mayhem caches are intended to provide fairly easy drive-by caches together with useful “just-off” motorway information for travellers who are in need of a break or seek alternatives to the typical motorway service station type fare and prices. It is hoped this series and concept will grow as other cachers add further caches along the length and breadth of Britain’s Motorways
This cache is part of a series of 5 caches around Junctions 39 to 42 of the M1 near Wakefield in West Yorkshire.
Other caches in the series are:
Motorway Mayhem M1 J39
Motorway Mayhem M1 J41
Motorway Mayhem M1 J42
Motorway Mayhem M1 J39 to J42 Bonus Cache
All the caches are situated very close to motorway junctions and can be accessed by both North and Southbound travellers. The terrain on all (except the last 50ft to the bonus cache) is on paved paths so suits/stilettos (not necessarily together) can be worn and wheelchairs should be ok. In fact you can park right next to most of them!
The log sheet of each cache contains part of the coordinates required to find the Bonus cache which is situated somewhere along this stretch of junctions … you will have to visit them all to gather the information needed to find the bonus cache. North to South or South to North? ….. It doesn’t matter much as the bonus cache can always be grabbed on the return journey if necessary!
This cache is situated on a public path off the A638 just west of J40 of the M1. There is easy parking within 5m of the cache
