Geocache Description:

Please put this cache back in the elevated position it belongs!




The story goes like this. Every Christmas, Cache and Cary brags about his Christmas Ornaments.

Specifically, he brags about two large blue Orbs that he likes to hang off of his vehicle to announce that he is ready for Christmas.

This cache is in homage to Cache and Cary's Blue 'balls'.

When you look at the map, you will note how fitting this location is for his homage. When you get to GZ, you will then have to deal with the gigantic task of retrieval. I mean, we're talking 12 feet into a member of the Ent family.

Why so high? Well, spring floods might make these blue orbs wet and dirty. I'm sure Cache and Cary would prefer that his orbs stay high and dry.

How to retrieve? You're either going to be climbing or using a TOTT. There are many natural wooden TOTTs around that can help you reach the tip. It might seem hard when you're there, but the with the right tool, you shouldn't find it hard at all.

Now, when you find it, there are two, of course. The left one contains the log sheet. The right one will remain empty until Kabuthunk visits. We want him to fill the empty space with one of his calling chain-mail-balls.

Congrats to Pa_Bottle on being the first cacher to grab Cache and Cary's Blue Balls

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
