Geocache Description:

Be afraid, be very afraid!!! This cache is not for the meek at heart. The use of climbing safety equipment is strongly recommended. I'm not fooling! Serious injury or death could result without the proper equipment.


This cache is for the bravest of the brave. For those that enjoy the challenge of going higher and higher and are foolish enough to risk their life and limb to do so.

The cache is a 50 cal ammo can and it can be found near the top of a tall pine tree located in Mendon Ponds Park. There was a slight breeze when I placed the cache and the pine tree was swaying nicely. As you make your ascent you will be on the lookout for a series of tags attached to the tree that will assist you in claiming a find for this cache. These tags are located on or very near the main trunk of the tree. Do NOT go out on any of the branches in search of these tags as this is extremely dangerous and the tags will not be there!

There is an issue with the tags. The super secret combination is: 7861.

The only way to claim a find for this cache is to actually make the climb yourself, find the code and sign the log book. If at any point you are not comfortable continuing on please turn back. A smiley is not worth seriously injuring yourself. There is a FTF prize for the first person to sign the log book. Have fun and be safe.

Disclaimer: This is an extreme geocache! Do not attempt this quest without proper safety equipment! Seeking this cache without proper safety equipment may result in serious injury or death! You are under no obligation to hunt my cache. You do so at your own risk. Like any outdoor sport, it carries the risk of unforeseen hazards. Use your best judgment with the environment and conditions. As conditions and cache locations may vary, it is the responsibility of the searcher to be familiar with the conditions in the area to be searched, to adequately prepare for those conditions, and to conduct oneself safely and responsibly and remain within his or her personal abilities and limitations. Children should be well supervised. When and if you find a cache, you are under no obligation to touch it, reach it, climb to it, dig for it, pick it up, or even open it. Open it at your own risk. If food or drink is present, do not consume it, throw it out. Individual Geocache sponsors assume no liability for events, which may occur, related directly or indirectly to your searching for a cache.


Congratulations Wheelygood on being brave/crazy enough to be FTF!!!
