Video: A geocacher walks up to a stone monument with a large metal disc featuring an image of a face. The geocacher probes the edges of the disc with their hands before pushing on the disc. The disc moves, and the geocacher pulls it out from the monument, revealing that it is mounted on a sliding track. The geocacher reaches into a compartment concealed behind the disc, grabs a petling geocache container, and holds it up to the camera, smiling.
