Geocache Description:

Death: One of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

This is the FOURTH and last in a series of four caches, each with its own container and web page. But they make up a multi-cache in the sense that you must visit each one to get the coordinates for the next cache. To get the correct coordinates for this cache, you must first visit the third cache in this series: PESTILENCE.

The four caches take their individual names from the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who are traditionally considered to represent War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death...elements of life that are still very much with us, nearly 2000 years after their last description in the Bible. The Four Horsemen are familiar symbols and offer the opportunity for plenty of discussion and contemplation about the vicissitudes of life. Do this while you take the pleasant walk between the four caches

There is a code word inside the lid of the container. TO GET CREDIT FOR THE CACHE, EMAIL ME THE CODE WORD FOUND INSIDE THE LID.

The container is a round plastic jar with a 4-inch opening and about 5 inches deep. It’s best suited for small objects. If it is a tight fit, dump everything out first, remove and retain a large item, and then repack it by placing the logbook in first.

The terrain rating is based on my preferred approach. There may be an easier way. Do not trespass on private property unless you have permission from the owner. Have fun.

Remember Geocache Etiquette
1. Don’t leave blank space in the logbook. Use all available white space, including the back of each page. Use a line to separate your entry from the one above it.
2. Reseal the container tightly to keep out moisture.
3. Rehide carefully.
