Thousands of pedestrians walk past this sewer top, unaware that a world-famous geocache is hidden right below their feet.<\/p>\n<p>Looking down on the sewer top, it might not be evident at first, but with a keen eye and some geosenses, the geocache should be apparent to the seasoned cacher\u2014a small PETling container hidden somewhere within this grate. The top of the container is cleverly disguised and can easily be missed if you aren\u2019t paying close attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hint:<\/strong> To find the cache, there is no need to leave the sidewalk or to unscrew or dismantle anything. And don\u2019t forget to watch your feet as you walk.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\ud83d\udc9a Geocache of the Week \ud83d\udc9a\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9qESb7U1bG8\" width=\"310\" height=\"551\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><br \/>\nVideo by giacaches.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have the geocache, don\u2019t forget to sign your name in the log sheet.<\/p>\n<p>Many geocachers have found and loved this cache:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8230;By the time we reached the posted coordinates, darkness was setting in, and my geo-sense was getting tired.
