From the mind of Tom Brunt the inaugral Dark Peak Christmas Whiskey Challenge is finally here…
DPFR Christmas Whiskey Challenge – 2023
- The cryptic clues should reveal 10 (for the most part) well known Dark Peak locations. (They are all named on the OS 1:25000 Dark Peak map.)
- For each answer fill in its OS grid square in the table below. i.e. If you thought that the answer to 1. was Mam Tor (it clearly isn’t) you would fill in 1283 in the first row.
- Take the 10 digits from the shaded squares to reveal a 10 figure grid reference and hidden treasure… If this location reveals an industrial estate on the outskirts of Rotherham you have gone wrong. It is very much in the heart of Dark Peak territory.
- If you are at the correct location some hunting will hopefully reveal a canister in a black stuff sack.
- Any questions / queries / complaints to tom.brunt1@btinternet.com
Good luck!!!
