SkiptonWeb Treasure Cache
Here we are then.
Welcome to the long awaited concealed cache; hidden in the deepest
darkest depths of the Dales.

How to get there.
Either: Take the SkiptonWeb
drive, (see stage 23) heading towards Foxup. Park
at the small car park in Halton Gill. Set your GPS for
SD9003978273
and, having paid your coins in the honesty box, make
your way along the road, and turn right onto the public
footpath heading towards Yockenthwaite. The SkiptonWeb
Treasure Cache is along the path and over to the right
behind a clutch of low rocks.
Or: During the Hubberholme
walk when you arrive at stage 15. Again set your
GPS for SD9003978273
and walk over the bridge. Head along the road South
to Raisgill, turn right onto a public footpath going
uphill along the track. The SkiptonWeb Treasure Cache
is along the path and over to the left behind a clutch
of low rocks. |

Once you arrive at the point indicated
by your Global Positioning System, search for a yellow
plastic box with a black lid, held down with a large rock..
It is hidden behind an outcrop of low limestone rock near
the path. |

What to do once
you have found the box:
1. Remove the stone, and take off the
lid.
2. Look for the disposable camera,
and take your-or your groups photograph. (Please use
only one snap per visit!) By taking the photograph you
agree to the image going online.
3. Find the notebook and write the
date, your name and any comments about the day/walk/experience
or the views around you.
4. *Optional* Choose an item in the
plastic bag you would like to exchange.
5. *Optional* Put your item into the
box, to replace the one you have removed.
6. Ensure that the notebook is back
inside the map holder and secured. Also that the camera
is back inside the box. Replace the lid properly, and
put the rock back on top, leaving it as you found it.
Please do not leave any litter ... Thank You.

You can now return to your starting point.
The camera will be retrieved and all photos will be posted on the
SkiptonWeb Gallery in due course. Please tell the old fella, when
the camera has one snap left. Thanks!
Hope you enjoy!
