Dino Cache Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Pofe: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have been looking at caches in the area that have been temporarily disabled for a while now and it looks like your cache has been under the weather for some time. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time I don’t think we can do so any longer. Therefore, I have archived this cache. If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

When repairs to this cache are completed and it is time to have it reposted, it will be no problem. Just drop me a note and let me know the GC waypoint number of the cache or better yet, the URL of the cache page. You will still be able to access your cache page just as before by going to your “My Cache Page” and clicking the link of your cache.

I will be more than happy to take a look at your cache again to see if it is still is within the guidelines of the Geocaching.com website for cache placement and posting.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT A TYPICAL PLASTIC BOX, IF YOU FIND THE PLASTIC CONTAINER KEEP LOOKING. THE PLASTIC CONTAAINER IS A LETTERBOX AND NOT THE CACHE. THE CACHE CAN ONLY BE OPENED WITH A SPECIAL TOOL OF SOME SORT.

Ever since the beginnings of paleontology, NJ has been the place for dino caching. Few people know that NJ is the nursery of American vertebrate paleontology. In the summer of 1858, a Victorian gentleman and fossil hunter found the first dinosaur in a ravine very similar to this one. When we think of dinosaurs, most of us think of those pictured in movies, like the always fiercely depicted T-Rex. Dinosaur fossils, though not usually the size of T-Rex are actually quite common in NJ. A 92 million yr. old tick was actually found in a vacant lot here in Burlington County wouldn’t you know it!!. So if you don’t have time to track footprints across the Newark Basin, or sift sand in PT. Pleasant for sharks teeth, or go to Poricy Parks streams for Trilobites & Brocaopods, you can always look for that dino in the ravines of Southern NJ, fossils have been found in the iron deposits, marl, & green sands of South Jersey for eons.
