Geocache Description:

The cache is close to the White Hill trig point on the Pennine Way, with great views.

This cache started life as a puzzle, called "It's relative" which directed you to the wrong White Hill. Doh! The Stonefielders then made it a traditional and have now adopted it to me as I like geocaches that are very high. Until 2024 the cache was called White Hill, but as of 2024 it has been brought into the YOSM series which highlights trigpoints across the UK so it has been renamed to the official name the OS recorded when they built the trigpoint.

This is a beautiful place and whilst the cache is close to the trig point, it is far enough away that it shouldn't be muggled. Please re-hide well.


About Ye Ole Survey Monuments

Ye Ole Survey Monument (YOSM) is a captivating series of caches that pays homage to the remarkable legacy of OutForTheHunt's YSM series (GC45CC).

YOSM caches are strategically positioned at or near Trig Points. These triangulation stations have played a pivotal role as surveying landmarks, contributing to the mapping of expansive territories.

Some of these points, bearing historical significance, might now be situated on private land or have vanished with time. As a result, the caches are artfully placed in close proximity, reverently acknowledging the historical importance of these survey monuments.

More information, bookmarks and statistics can be found at the YOSM Website

If anybody would like to expand the Ye Ole Survey Monuments Series, please do.
I would ask that you request a number for your cache first at www.yosm.org.uk
so we can keep track of the numbers and names to avoid duplication.
