Geocache Description:

This cache is located near Tempo, Co.Fermanagh.

Once upon a time two giants just happened to meet on the summit of Topped Mountain. One was big, the other was little. They eyed each other up and down wondering which one of them was the stronger. The Big Giant said "I think I am stronger than you and I can prove it". The Little Giant pondered deeply, then replied "Let's see who can throw a stone the furtherest - that will be the test".
The Big Giant smiled inwardly. "No problem, I'll teach this guy a lesson" he thought. He picked up a large stone and threw it with all his strength. It flew into the air - over Mollyknock, and Pubble too - landing with a thump in a field near Tempo. With a look of smug satisfaction he said "follow that".
The Little Giant looked around. He selected a little stone and this, he hurled with all his might. It, too, whizzed over Mollyknock and Pubble - and landed - right on top of the big stone that the Big Giant had thrown.
Wow!, some story - at least this is what I was told when, as a young boy we drove past in our car. What do you mean you don't believe it - once you have found the cache why not climb the grassy bank and see for yourself.
The cache is a micro hidden inside a camouflaged bag - please replace carefully and conceal well afterwards. Remember to bring a pen/pencil.
There is a convenient space for one car nearby - but, as always please park sensibly and take care beside this busy road.
