Harry Potter - Dumbledore's Tower (#8?) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Sonoluminous: After 5 years and a number of visits it is time to archive this part of the Harry Potter series. I recently performed maintenance on the entire series and all is in place. This tree is now not safe to climb and therefore Dumbledore has gone off to visit other caches in the series.

Before he left he replaced a repelling charm on this tower....

Thanks to all who visited over the last 5 years!

Geocache Description:


Harry Potter: Dumbledore's Tower

Sometimes things happen when we are caching and we run into problems.  We have all been there. 

This cache contains everything you'll ever need to solve all the caches in the Harry Potter series.   That means you get the coords to all the caches, the spells to open all the caches and even a blessing from Dumbledore.   But, as they say, nothing in life is free.   You'll need to work for that information ...

When you get to the coordinates listed you'll need to look up.   See that container with the yellow tape 30 foot up in the tree?  Yes, that's where Dumbledore is waiting to meet you.   Don't forget to take the piece of paper he gives you when you get up there and sign in!

Please note: To complete the entire Harry Potter series you do not need to find this one, but I am sure Snape would give you some extra credit to put you at the top of your potions class! 

This cache is potentially very dangerous and is definitely not intended for children or anyone of sane mind!  For those who are like me please be very careful in getting to this cache.  You assume all risk and responsibility in trying to reach the container.

  • Park your vehicle at N 41.06.912  W 073.36.696.  Do not pull off into the parking area unless you have a big 4X4 as you may not get out!  Believe me several have got stuck when they have come for other caches in these woods.  Just pull into the side.
  • Please be aware that because of the limited foot traffic through these woods, this area has ticks during the season.  Please be vigilant as you walk along.
  • It can also be wet and muddy - be sure to wear waterproof boots.  Follow the bridal trails all the way.
  • Please be sure to place everything back EXACTLY as you found it so others can also enjoy the adventure.
  • This series was a true family affair - and is a tribute to the little bit of magic J. K. Rowling brought to us all over the course of 12 years and 7 AMAZING books!
