Geocache Description:


Episode 3:

Challenge Style: Skill wink

Time Limit: The amount of time it takes for you to complete the task, or give up! Not much muggle activity in the area

How to get there

Challenge: Stage 1 is at the posted coordinates so use the waypoints given to follow the track up hill, you will encounter some tricky bits buts that's the reason for the terrain rating. As you make your way to GZ, tree cover was bad so use the spoiler photos provided and look for the long, fallen tree. At the higher end, you will see where you will find a box with your instructions.


Special Rules: You will get your instructions at Stage 1! devil

Richard O'Brien Style Tip: 

laugh"Team work not essential, but is very useful and simply just more fun.  PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN USING TOOLS PROVIDED  At Stage 1 you will get instructions on how to use the cache and how to reset! Make sure you enjoy yourself" wink

 

Rules of "The Crystal Maze"

DON'T post pictures of the challenge itself (it will ruin the fun)

DON'T put anything other than the cache log container back into the challenge (it may not open/close properly)

Be SAFE when performing the challenge (especially if it has rained)

DO have fun (have fun as a team)

DO be gentle with the challenge container (it took a long time to build)

DO take note of the number at the top of the log (you will need it by the end of the series)

 

Difficulty rating:
For the challenge itself, it requires skill, physical activity and patience to complete and reset. Please ensure it is reset before you go.

Terrain rating:
Sheep track 95% of the way, with thorns throughout, 3 areas along the way make it tricky hence the rating. For the location of the cache container, it is not far off a sheep track
