[Chrismod75] US Army base (GC3J2M4)
2/1.5
Geocaching takes us to some pretty interesting places. Sometimes it’s to the top of a mountain. Sometimes it’s to a spooky abandoned place. This geocache will take you on an adventure to a decommissioned Army base in Italy. The relics of communications equipment and buildings still remain and are open for exploration. Places like this can teach us about the history of a local area and also the history about what was happening in the world at the time.
“A bit spooky, but it was all worth it 
. Classic LP cache, that was found by chance without amy searching at all – somehow I went straight to the box 
. That´s worth a FP!” – Noogman1
“What a must have Lost Place Geocache! For our old VW Bus was the climb up this road a really hardcore test. But he did it, and the Result was an incredible view over the valleys in front and back of us. An surely this LP is the hard way up really worth. Thanks for bringing up here.” – Mystic-G
“what a fantastic lost place. The satellite dishes were very impressive. It was scary to explore the abandoned buildings. The view was great and the wind was strong. Thank you for showing this great lost place.” – CharityLaird

Die suche nach dem ältesten ungefundenen Geocache im US-Bundesstaat Washington
Etwa vier Stunden vom Geocaching-Hauptquartier in Seattle entfernt, auf dem Gipfel des Liberty-Bell-Berges, liegt “Tensegrity on Liberty” (GC1G5BY), der älteste ungefundene Geocache in Washington. Der Grund dafür? Es ist ein Geocache mit einem Schwierigkeits- und Geländewert von 5, der 122 Meter technisches Klettern der Stufe A5 erfordert.
In unseren neuen Video versucht Geocaching-Hauptquartier-Mitarbeiter Derek gemeinsam mit einem befreundeten Muggel den Erstfund und verdient sich das neue Geocaching-Road-Trip-‘15-“Let’s Get Extreme”-Souvenir. Wahrscheinlich kennst Du ihn aus einigen unserer Videos. Neben seiner Tätigkeit als Autor und Schauspieler (er versucht es wenigstens) für Groundspeak ist er ein begeisterter Kletterer. Sieh Dir das neue Video an und finde heraus, ob er es schafft.

5/5
Beginning tomorrow, you can earn your Let’s Get Extreme Geocaching Road Trip ’15 souvenir by finding a D5 or a T5 geocache. Or, if you want to get SUPER EXTREME, you could find a 5/5 geocache like this one. This geocache is located on Mont Blanc, the highest point in Europe and one of the most popular alpine climbs on the continent.
[translated from German] “A super cache up here, great views safe is our highest cache and I’m pretty proud to have done it! thanks for hiding!” – D Gniesser
“It was our first find after the climbing Mont Blanc (summit). We have decided to look for the caches along the route on our way down. This cache was really great and I liked it very much. I also guess it´s my highest placed cache I´ve ever found. Merci!” – -Iti-
“My 6-th time on MontBlanc and 5-th successful time on the summit! And just first time remember to look for a cache 🙂 It wasnt easy – still a lot of snow, ice. Was looking around, turning rocks for ~15 mins while found it 🙂 Also placed small lithuanian flag to container. Thank you for cache in amazing place!” – Pilypas.lt
