Rotten Little Grotto Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Cache-tech: Greetings from Geocaching.com

I have had no contact with the cache owner since my last note and there has been no notes posted to the cache page in that 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.
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 (Mine) across the top and then click on this 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 for your understanding,
Cache-tech

Geocache Description:

This cache is close to a road, though you will have to go underground to find it.

You will need a flashlight. I would highly recommend a head-mounted light. In the interest of safety, I would also recommend a second source of light as well (even just a lighter or indiglo watch). You might get a little dirty, so you may want to think about your wardrobe. Though the terrain is level 4, children are definitely welcome, and would have an easier time, in fact.

Go to a small clearing at the above location (0461580 5366812). Then, go 20 metres on a bearing of 50 degrees. You will see a small triangular opening in the forest floor at the base of a tree. Zip up your jacket and head inside. You'll find a small passageway that you will have to slither through. About 10 metres in, you'll be in a small chamber that you can stand up in. Look back at where you just slithered through. Almost directly underneath the crawl (and a little to the left) is a small side-passage. Go down there. You'll be in a very small chamber. The cache is on the left, in a hole, covered with sticks (the cache, not the hole).
