All elements of this cache are within a 30 mile radius of the given
coordinates. However, we do not recommend this a starting point.
Please note that the location of the fourth cache has changed and
so you need to check the first three very carefully if you have
already been working out some of the clues.
To find this cache you must first solve three clues, each of
which will take you to a virtual cache. The three virtual caches
will give you the location of a fourth cache. When you get to the
4th cache which gives you the final cache coordinates we would
recommend that you park away from it and go by foot - it is a very
pleasant walk. Also, for reasons that will be obvious when you find
it, you must replace it very carefully.The fourth cache will
give you the location of the Wildcat cache itself. We recommend
that you do some research and solve the first three clues before
setting out to find the virtual caches. We think that this will
probably take all day but it does have an interesting mix of
locations. There are toilets and other facilities available.
Visit the three virtual caches to find the location of the
fourth cache which is hidden at

number of the second date gives you 'd'.

Once you have found the fourth cache you will need to ask for
permission to get to the actual Wildcat cache site; tell them you
are geocaching.
If you get really stuck, email us with where you have got to and
we will try and give you another clue.
When you find the Wildcat send us a description of the box and
we will send you a cache card (which we forgot to put in the
box!!)
