Granite Earth Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Krypton: As there's been no response to my previous note, I assume that the cache is not going to be repaired or replaced, so I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us, and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it

Thanks for your cooperation!

Geocache Description:

Ammo box in a cool group of boulders.

Unknown Dome is the name some climbers have given the giant boulder in the middle of this boulder field. It isn't really a dome, but whatever, it is a cool rock!

This is an ammo can hidden pretty well but (when we hid it) the corner of the can was visible from 3 different angles. Our 2 year hid it himself so it isn't that hard!


This cache is part of a Series


We have seen Series caches with lots of difficult caches making up the series that take multiple days and a lot of moving around to complete. We wanted to make a series for travelers visiting Lake Tahoe (and locals!), especially with kids in mind. We will call ours a "Mini Series" since it is only 4 caches total, all close to each other and the whole series can be done in one afternoon. Our kids hid all the caches (with our help) so your kids should love the spots.

The series of caches are all located at or near local "bouldering" areas. Bouldering is a form of rock climbing on boulders instead of cliffs, with no need for ropes, harnesses and other gear. Just climbing shoes, a chalkbag and a crashpad.

When visiting these areas please respect the climbers, animals and nature that you may encounter. These places are very special to us and many people would like to keep them secret so please tread lightly and enjoy the cool "secret" spots! We climb at all of these areas often so don't be surprised if you are being watched while looking for the caches!
