Geocache Description:

Once upon a time, Team Lead Pipe! was out and about, doing the cachin' thing, when they came upon a very ominous looking switch with an unknown purpose, with the words Portal Controls engraved on the housing. Let it be known that our dear friend Ed was the first to throw the switch...



Needless to say, we were not prepared for what happened next. A swirling portal opened up behind the switch, and looking us dead in the eyes were our evil counterparts, Team Copper Pipe. 'This looks like a portal to another dimension' said Joe. The evil Joe turned and laughed 'Yes, and you will suffer our unholy wrath! We plan to conquer your pathetic universe!'



Fearful of being doomed to a life ruled by a slighty more evil version of ourselves, we tried to switch the portal back to the 'closed' position to no avail. 'Ha!' cried out the evil Ben, 'There is only one way to reverse that switch!' The not-so-evil Ben asked 'What would that be?' All of Team Copper Pipe bursted out 'One sample of each of your five basic elements.' Team Lead Pipe looked at one and other in dismay... Brent piped out that 'We only have Four basic elements in this dimension... Air, Water, Fire and Earth.' The evil Brian chimed in 'The fifth element resides everywhere in every dimension. Its substance is unlike that of any product you know of, and is in limited supply.' Evil Ben added 'And it tastes good on a sandwich, too.'

Based on those clues, Team Lead Pipe figured out what they needed to find, and off they were. They had only a few hours before the portal widened enough for Team Copper Pipe to walk through, meaning an abrupt end to everything they knew. They were going to need some help...

That is where you come in. Team Lead Pipe needs your help finding the Earth element to the 'Save the Universe - the Elements' cache series. You must find the Earth cache. Afterall, Team Lead Pipe is far too lazy to do it on their own, even with the Universe at stake.
