Why don\u2019t T. rexes ever log their geocache finds? Because they can\u2019t reach the Logbook.<\/p>\n

This week, we\u2019re bringing you a Mystery gadget cache that is likely to give you a chuckle. An exceptionally creative geocache, this prehistoric dino dude needs your help to get to the log sheet.<\/p>\n

Hidden in Ohio, Here-A-Pod Teropod (GCB47EA<\/a>), was placed for Midwest Geobash to fit the dinosaurs and Stone Age theme. Many amazing dinosaur-themed caches are scattered across the land, and this gem is nothing ‘short’ of incredible.<\/p>\n

As you approach this geocache, the location of the cache may be ambiguous. The container is an enclosed wooden box, attached to a pole, next to some traffic signs, making the exact location uncertain until you come closer to GZ.<\/p>\n

Once you have set your focus on the correct container and open it up, a delightful surprise awaits\u2014you may even let out a giggle once you realize the ambitious goal, perfectly on-theme for Midwest Geobash. Inside, you\u2019ll find an egg, T. rex arms, and a nest.<\/p>\n

To claim your find, you must get to the log sheet, which is protected by a combination code.<\/p>\n

Grab the arms and scoop the egg into the nest without dropping it. This may seem easy, but the limited range and slippery hands make this a true test of precision.<\/p>\n
