Geocache Description:

This is the tenth and the bonus final cache in a series around Whippendell Woods. The cache is not at this location (this is the carpark where you can start the walk around Whippendell Woods)

For more information about Whippendell Wood please see 01 Creative


So this is your challenge.  How quickly can you get around the route and find all the caches that will enable you to find this one? Six of the caches around this series contain the numbers required to find this one and will need to be entered into the formula at the bottom of the page.

Make a note of what time you found 01 Creative and the time yourself how long it takes to find the others including this one.  Once you have this time you can find out what level of Chief Scout you are. (Please remember this is for fun only and will not prevent you from finding or logging this cache).

Each level of Chief Scout Challenge has an increased difficulty represented by the time it has taken you to find all 10 caches in the series

Bronze – collect all the caches in the series

Silver – within 24 hours

Gold – within four hours

Platinum – within two hours

Diamond – within one hour

In your log let us know what level challenge you have completed along with your time (remember this is for fun only so please still take care when walking around the woods as the paths are slippery and muddy)

The cache is hidden at the following location

N51 40.ABC

W000 26.DEF
