Geocache Description:

Microcache hidden within a rest area off westbound Interstate 70.

I so wanted to put a regular sized (if not an economy sized, two-story-with-basement) cache here, but for reasons which you will see, it just wasn't possible. I was preparing to plant my first Altoid breath-strip container cache (technically, it was already planted), when I realized there was one place where a small decon container could be adequately concealed, and not require a new paint job.

Which is good. I prefer planting caches which don't require magnifying glasses, wherever possible.

Cache container is a modified 4" x 3" x 2" M258A1 (decon) container (be sure to reseal the lid tightly for waterproofing). Starting contents include:

- Cheap'N Dirty Logbook
- Amazing Shrunken Gel-Pen
- A couple mini tape measure keychain thingies

There are few places this can be put without it being visible to others, so please remember where you found it, and put it back in the same place. This cache is, unavoidably, concealed in an area with a lot of traffic at certain times of the day, so part of the challenge will be to avoid curious onlookers. There's a nice pic-ee-nic table nearby where you can wait. Or, perhaps occupants of this table will be part of the problem.
