Have you ever needed a helping hand while geocaching? Well, this cache requires one!

4 handjes (GC9KEDV) has all the hallmarks of a fun and interesting geocache: field puzzles, TOTTs, and, most importantly, teamwork.

Located in Noord-Brabant, geocachers travel from near and far to visit several well-known caches, including not one but two hengelcache (fishing rod cache) series. Not to be outdone, 4 handjes poses its own unique challenge for geocachers who want to try their hand at something new.

Prulleke2, a family of geocachers, wanted to create a cache that incorporated elements of some of their favorite caches. But most importantly, they wanted to create a cache that challenged geocachers to work together to solve the final puzzle.

Each family member chose an element or two to add to the design: a magnet, stapeltellen (also known as digital root), water displacement, and a dash of “logic, common sense, and cooperation.”

We’ve got to hand it to prulleke2, they created a cache like no other! So assemble a team of your closest geo-friends and book your tickets to the Netherlands! Make sure to pack the necessary TOTTs and plan ahead—this cache might take some time to crack.
