Geocache Description:

Proclivities is placed in honor of Grandpa Rocks and Grouchy Gramma's 1000th cache find! Congratulations to them on this "grand" accomplishment!

The Grandparents' proclivity is to find caches. Our proclivity, when hiding caches, is to make the find interesting and challenging. In honor of GR&GG's 1000th find, we have placed this cache in one of their "favorite" Portland parks.

No puzzle this time. The coordinates you see listed are the coordinates where you'll find the cache. We didn't want any addle-pated grandparents, or anyone else. However, the cache is not in the obvious location....but the obvious location often needs some trashing out, in spite of the fact there is a trash can nearby.

Note the terrain rating, although getting within range of the cache would be a terrain of 1. Even Sassquatch will probably need a boost. Climbing will probably not be successful, and probably isn't safe. You won't be able to see the cache until just about the time you touch it, or maybe just after you touch it. However, you will be easily seen by the many aliens around.

This will make a good dusk or night cache; the park is open from 5am til midnight

This cache is no longer tupperware; it is camoflaged so that the local kids who hang out nearby and drink beer will probably not give it a second glance. In fact, you could say that it matches the proclivity of another infamous local geocacher... It is clearly marked as a geocache, so don't trash out too much! To open, just unscrew the lid. There is not a lot of room inside. There is a pencil inside, but you might want to bring one just in case.

Please make sure to put the cache back exactly where you found it so that it remains out of sight.
