Geocache Description:

This log-only microcache may be a tricky find. You will be very visible during the hunt so it may test your comfort zone as well as your instincts. Be sure to bring your own writing utensil as there isn't room for one in the cache container.

Leave the kids and the dogs at home.


You are looking for a small medicine bottle about 2-3/4" high and 1" in diameter that has been painted black. It's suitable for a cache-and-dash over lunch and even for a night hunt if you are feeling confident.

The coordinates will get you almost on top of the cache and you should have no trouble with satellite reception. There is parking near by, but please be respectful of the local businesses and choose a street rather than a parking lot.

The log has been rolled up fairly tightly and a metal ring is wrapped around it so that it is easy to remove from the container. Once you have it out of the bottle, simply twist the ring while pulling to release the log book and unroll.

When re-rolling the log book, make sure the laminated side is facing out. The log sheets have been trimmed such that, when rolled up properly, the pages form a nice, straight edge with no exposed paper. Please use the metal ring and take your time when putting things back together to ensure the log book has a long and healthy life...and is easily removed by the next cacher.
