Geocache Description:


DUE TO THE LACK OF INTEREST IN TACKLING THIS CHALLENGE AS A WHOLE AND THE DIFFICULTY OF MAINTENANCE IT WILL NOT BE MAINTAINED AS A SERIES AFTER EASTER 2023. AFTER THIS DATE THE VOWELS AND BONUS ARE LIKELY TO BE REMOVED WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE. IF YOU ARE ATTEMPTING THE SERIES AND GETTING CLOSE TO COMPLETION AT THAT TIME LET ME KNOW AND I'LL LEAVE A CACHE IN PLACE FOR YOU BUT ASK THAT YOU TO REMOVE IT WHEN YOU VISIT.
This is Alphabet Challenge J a small  container hidden at Jackman's Bottom within Dartmoor national park.
  Whichever way you approach you will have a significant hike over exposed moorland.

The Alphabet Challenge consists of 25 caches plus the bonus (Z).
