GT Dino's
Lunch Box
60 Million
years ago last Dino's died all over the world. But why this happen
isn't completely clear till now. One theory is about an impact of a
big meteorite which reflected a lot of dust in the atmosphere. Sun
light was very poor and temperature goes down a lot. The Dinos were
not able to handle this fast climatic change and they died together
with a lot of other animals.
The two
special species of Dinos which were living here are called
Megalosaurus and Iguanodon. Nearby this cache are footprints of
Dinos visible. They lived about 120 to 180 million years ago. More
information you can find in the internet - I'm not an expert about
Dino's :-)
Megalosaurus

Or? You
want to read about another theory? Well, maybe they loosed their
lunch-boxes? We found one of them and decide to let this lunch-box
as a XL cache in nature. So any Geocacher can find it and although
see some of Dino's footprints in this area.
Footprints at: N 38°48.623 W 009°28.823. At the Moment the stairs
to them are closed, danger of landslip.
Hunt
As we like
the very special nature between Cascais - Cabo da Roca and Sintra
it was clear for us to bring you here for hunting our second cache.
It is a nice walk from Praia Grande to Praia Adraga.
As we are a family with kids (today 4 and 10 years old) our hidden
caches has to be kid-friendly. So take care of your kids and bring
them with you in this fantastic area. We tried to find and a place
without thorns and other kid-unfriendly things. To avoid damages in
nature the shown coordinates are really exact. So don't damage
something and take care about the environment. Because of the size
it should be easy to find.
Cache
First cache
of Golden-Team was a good success and we were so nervous about it.
So for this cache we put all our happiness and
Portugal-Cache-Experience together for prepare it as good as
possible. It's like you can imagine a bigger box (17 x 30 x 21 cm).
