Geocache Description:


After doing a few of these and enjoying them quite a bit I wanted to put one in this area. I have an idea for an additional one and wanted to see the responses from this one to determine how the next one should be done. The rating for this one is based on the final location. You will need to be very sneaky retrieving and replacing this cache as it is a high muggle traffic area most of the day. Early morning or late afternoon or early evening would be the best times for this one. It would be a hard one to do in the dark, but not totally impossible. I borrowed the basics of these instructions from the Albion Pict-o-Cache as they describe how this one should be done. This cache requires that you start at the posted coordinates. From the starting point, you will then look for the item shown in picture #1. Once found, proceed to this item and get as close to being under/over/next to it as possible. From there, continue on to the next picture (and so on) until you have found the last pic. Occasionally, you may need to step out a few feet to get a better vantage point to find the next location... Each item shown can be seen from the location of the picture prior. However, the pictures shown here may have been taken at a closer or slightly different angle from the way you will see it from your standing location but once you get to the item you should be able to confirm that you are at the right object. Pictures may be a far distance away or they may be fairly close... so you'll need a sharp and discerning eye to progress through the numbers. Look at the final picture and find the magnetic key holder to log in. There is a small pencil but you may want to bring along a writing utensil just in case. Again, please be careful when retrieving and re-hiding this one as it is one of those “In Plain Sight” types that is painted to match its location.

While downtown be sure to check out the mural recently painted by artist David Reiser who has ties to Columbus, it is titled “Discovering the Colorful History of Columbus" and measures 26 feet in height and 84 feet in length. It is located on the East Side of Frankfort Square near the corner of 13th Street and 26th Ave and definitely worth a peak.
