Geocache Description:


This cache is placed in memory of one of the greatest NBA players of all time, the Black Mamba himself Kobe Bryant. Bryant along with his daughter and seven others were tragically in a helicopter crash on January 26th.

The facts below about Kobe’s life will give you coordinates for the cache.

Kobe was born on August 2B, 1978. He attended Lower Merion High School in Philadelphia where he wore #A3.

Kobe was taken by the Charlotte Hornets with pick #IJ in the 1996 NBA Draft. He was subsequently traded to the Los Angeles Lakers that night.

During his time with the Lakers, Kobe won G NBA Championships and was named NBA Finals MVP E times.

He also won the NBA Most Valuable Player award once, in 200D.

He was named to the All-NBA first team a total of FH times.

Kobe’s final game came on April 13, 2016 against the Utah Jazz. In the game, he scored C0 points.


The final cache is located on the Warren Bike Path. It was actually hidden minutes after hearing of Kobe's passing, so the spot has a bit of significance in that regard. Some of you may remember it from the series we had here in the past.

Please rehide as you found it and hope you enjoy.
