GCM2G3 Urban Woods (Multi-cache) in Iowa, United States created by CacheDragons

This cache has been archived.

CacheDragons: I have decided to archive my cache, but I wanted to let you know what the original 4 stages were before I did that.

1) Was a real rock that I had drilled out, look in the gallery to see it.

2) Was a fake Ivy Plant that was mixed in with real plants, look in the gallery to see it.

3) Was a string hanging in a tree, the string had Knots in it that when counted out gave you the cords to the final stage.

The final stage was just a normal cache sitting in a pine tree.

I grew up in Urbandale and I can remember what this area looked like before it was developed. Over the last 3 years I spent many nights on this trail walking with my daughter and the family dog. When the moon is full it can be quite relaxing, but when the moon is absent it is very dark.

This is a 4 stage multi cache, each stage will be more difficult than the last but I promise that I toned it down from my original ideas. Having a cache that can not be solved is not fun for the cache placer or the cacher that is trying to solve it.

Try not to leave any evidence of what you find and do your best to put it back the way it was when you found it. I am not posting hints but I will email one to you if you are having trouble. Make sure when you post you don't give anything up not even encrypted, I would hate to have to delete your post.
