Geocache Description:

This is part of a multi cache each loggable in their own right taking you to one final location

CRAZYWELL POOL
Legend has it that at various times a voice has been heard calling loudly from the water with the name of the next person in the parish to die, for this reason locals are known to avoid walking within earshot of the pool Another version is that the image of the next person to die will be reflected in the pool on midsummer’s eve. Two young locals were challenged to spend the night at crazywell one midsummer’s night. On their way home, their motorbike crashed as they failed to negotiate a bend on Roborough Down and both were killed What had they seen when they looked in the pool? Their own reflections

Take care and let us know if you encounter any strange occurrences whilst on your search Above all keep safe and take all necessary precautions for walking on Dartmoor

Each cache contains a part co-ordinate for the bonus cache which is a good size ammo box. As well as the co-ords you will find a single number in red in three of the caches you will need these later. You will need to bring a pen/cil for the logs
