This is a Mark "TheCat" cache
Public
This cache was set by Mark TheCat. Sadly Mark passed away on 9th September 2004 at the age of 48. He had only recently moved from Bradford to the Shetland Islands. Mark had a huge input to UK geocaching in the early days. Perhaps his biggest contribution was the setting up and running of GeocacheUK, a platform used by many UK cachers. The services provided stats and tools to complement those provided by geocaching.com and were used by a large proportion of regular geocachers in the UK. Mark spent lots of his own money on this. Amongst his most memorable feats were his annual Children in Need fox hunts. Over a period of a week Mark would drive thousands of miles around the UK with a GPS transponder which could be remotely checked by other cachers to get coordinat. It was a moving geocache. The challenge was to meet up with and collect money for the charity event. I did it and loved it. Here is a link to Mark's GC.com username is TheCat
