GC34R1N Nerd Series #4 - GeoNerd Cache (Traditional Cache) in Mississippi, United States created by dameetro

This cache has been archived.

dameetro: Well I gave this one a good try this morning.
I figured with the lake pretty much non-existent because of the hole in the dam that maybe it would be an easy trek. Nope! I still sunk over my knees twice while making the trek over from the campground. Made it to GZ and it’s very overgrown. It looks a lot different than the last time I was here, and I was unable to locate the container. It may be here buried under some flood debris, or under some new growth. But since I couldn’t find it, I don’t want anyone else to make such a strenuous hike for nothing. So sadly I think I will archive this one.

Geocache Description:

Welcome to the Nerds #4- GeoNerd Cache. This is the fourth in my "nerds" cache series placed around Arkabutla Lake.

This cache was placed by self-proclaimed GeoNerd. Odds are, if you are looking at this cache....you may also be a GeoNerd. Use this checklist to see if you meet the criteria:

You are familiar with words like, 'gerr', 'ybt', 'fghzc', 'ebpx', 'gur', 'yvsg' and 'oruvaq'.
You actually look forward to visiting the in-laws because there are caches nearby that you havn't found.
You no longer talk to your friends about geocaching; as none of them will allow it.
You find yourself having to explain to your significant other why there is a sudden shortage of Tupperware containers in the kitchen.
Your driveway is covered with spray painted cache box silhouettes.
You have missed class or work because of geocaching
You have trouble refusing an FTF
You crave geocaching as soon as you wake up.
When you are in a store you look at every hollow object as a potential cache container.
You spend most of your time in a dollar store looking for swag.
Everywhere you go, you are always looking for a good hiding spot.
You get really excited when you find a new park.
You no longer think of the city in terms of streets and addresses but rather cache locations.
Your wedding invitation features a Difficulty / Terrain rating.
You realize you can now read the hints without clicking Decrypt or looking at the key.
You get distracted watching movies because you keep scanning the background scenery thinking: “That’d be a GREAT place for a cache!”
The clerks at McDonald's are getting suspicious Why does one guy need so many Happy Meals?
Your boss takes you aside and asks you about the smell of DEET when you come back from a long lunch.
Everyone else puts a quarter in the coffee fund jar in the office break room, but you TAKE a quarter and LEAVE a Travel Bug, then cover the jar with pine straw.

If this sounds like you, then you may enjoy this cache!

The Cache: This one could be a short walk, or a long walk....depending on the time of the year. In the winter months, the lake will be very low and you can walk right to it without any trouble. You will want to wear your boots. In summer months, you will probably want to use a boat or kayak unless you want to walk a long way. If you are camping at Hernando Point, you won't be too far from gz. But getting to it may take some effort. You are looking for an ammo can. Feel free to leave any signature items, trackables, or any other swag. Enjoy the hunt!
