Geocache Description:

*What was Your Worst DNF? A puzzle cache at the posted coordinates. You must find the cache and comply with the special logging requirements to log this cache. Otherwise, admit your defeat and post a DNF!

Congratulations to the "Desperate CacheWives" for co-FTF (mtncachers, Mrsblueman and Snoop doggie dee). And as always, thanks for playing by the rules ladies!

Everyone has experienced a DNF at one time or another. Some DNFs are a result of a lack of determination or a lack of time to do the hunt justice. Others are a result of your own ineptitude; a failure to spot the obvious. Others are definitely “the cache from hell”. You know the type. You hike 2 miles in 100 degree heat, wallow in poison ivy, leave your GPS at the cache site and get back to the car to discover that you have locked the keys in the ignition and left the lights on. When you get home, you go online to log your DNF and discover the cache has been disabled or archived.

As you can see from the Google Earth satellite view of the cache coordinates, there is little likelihood of muggles running off with the cache. It’s there, there are just plenty of places to look for an ammo box.

Special Logging Requirements:

1. Find the cache.
2. Sign and date the log.
3. If you trade, please trade even or better.
4. When posting your find on the cache page, List the cache name and waypoint code of your WORST DNF experience and cut and paste the log from the failed hunt.

THE RULES:

Comply with the special logging requirements as described above.

Comply with my overarching rules as listed on my profile page.

Be careful, be safe, and have fun with your hunt.
