Geocache Description:


Please ensure that the flush bracket number is not visible in any photos.

The cache is NOT at the posted co ordinates.

Stage 1: Use your OL28 1:25000 map

At the Great Links Tor triangulation point, you head due east for 1.5km at which point you turn south-east and continue for another 1km. Approximately 1.5km to your east there is a low but wide tor which looks interesting so you make your way to it. From here, you see a small river valley to your north and follow it downhill until it meets another small river where you follow it uphill to its apparent source. To your north is a track that climbs uphill in both east and westerly directions, so you follow it to the west until it meets another track that runs in a north-south direction. You take the track south until it ends at a small tor. Which OS grid square are you now in? Grid = ABCD

Stage 2: Visit the trig point and obtain the four digit number from the base plate. Trig No = EFGH

The cache can be found at:

N 50 (C-G) (D+H) . (E+F) (A-H) A
W 004 (B-C) E . H (F+H-G) (D-B)
