Chamaeleontidae - Cougar Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Smokeyg: You can take this one down for good - it's just too much trouble to keep up with. I'll probably set another one after another cacher fills the vacated coords. Thanks.

Geocache Description:

This micro-multi journey involves 4 waypoints and the final - 30 cal ammo container. Overall distance is around 4 miles. Subscribers can check out "48 hours" along the way.

The Cougar Mountain Chameleon:

This semi-evolved species is definitely not without it's weaknesses. A recessive gene leaves many CMC's unable to blend into their natural environment. Luckily for these brightly clad border chameleons, the CMC has no natural predators due to their sandy-jellyish texture and reported "ear-wax" flavor. The coyotes won't even touch them. Their only natural threat is torrential rain. Their skin has little defense against moisture, they are often seen crouching under rocks in a vain effort to stay dry. Darwin would be disappointed.

Special-ops chameleons, who retain the ability to blend into their surroundings, have been known to climb to higher locations, burrow deep under rocks, and/or mess up GPS signals in an effort to remain concealed. Few people have ever actually seen a special-ops chameleon in the wild. Some believe they may not actually exist. I believe.

There is a set of 4 Chamaeleontidaes waiting in the queen cache's womb. Please take them only if you plan on setting up a cache of your own. Godspeed.

Congrats to Moun10Bike for FTF. You overcame my newbie caching incompetence like the thoroughbred you are.
