Geocache Description:

PANDORA'S BOX

4 KEYS are required to find this cache. All Key Holders must go to each stage (or within 80 ft.) with the keys in hand. Staying in the group is highly recommended. There is "more" than one way to find it, but that's a secret. The Four Keys you will need are travel bugs that should be somewhere close to Durham, NC.
PANDORA'S BOX is a very old story In Greek mythology. Pandora was the first woman on earth. Zeus ordered Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship, to create her and he did, using water and earth. The gods endowed her with many talents; Aphrodite gave her beauty, Apollo music, Hermes persuasion, and so forth, hence her name - Pandora, "all-gifted." When Prometheus stole fire from heaven, Zeus took vengeance by presenting Pandora to Epimetheus, Prometheus' brother. With her, Pandora had a jar which she was not to open under any circumstance. Impelled by her natural curiosity, Pandora opened the jar, and all evil contained escaped and spread over the earth. She hastened to close the lid, but the whole contents of the jar had escaped, except for one thing which lay at the bottom, and that was Hope.

(PLEASE NOTE) Terrain is a 5 only for the dangers involved. For your safety please DO NOT GO ALONE (you may not make it that far anyway). There is a great risk of being trapped and/or injured. A 50ft safety rope on standby might be a good idea. If you have a "bad fallin"...I mean if you have a "bad feeling" STOP, and go find a lamp skirt cache down the road. This cache was meant to bring fellow cachers together (10 MAX only please), so please don't hunt down all the keys yourself. The general rule for this cache has been key holders invite ONE other to join them. This = 8 cachers, this means room for 2 more (you guys figure out who). Also keep in mind that the box is made by me, so it has many flaws. Match N with N, S with S, etc. I hid this cache on my sister's birthday 06-06-???? she turned 32 (PLEASE ALSO NOTE) Due to the some of the locations and stages, please keep the group to 10 max. Otherwise the cache might be less enjoyed with a crowd And *PLEASE* if you are discovered by someone without a GPS, take the container with you (I can get it later). These "containers" are extremely hard to replace. Thanks! *** Would be great if your "team" took a photo before you guys started*** !PLEASE! Do Not Post Anywhere Dates & Times of your plans! PLEASE! keyholders; please keep in mind the other cachers that have shown interest in this cache. (PLEASE BE CARFUL OF WHAT PHOTOS YOU ADD TO YOUR LOG. Photos added to your log may take away from the adventure for the next team of hunters. I love caching photos, but I will not stand for photos that give too much away) If you're not sure about your photo/s please contact me.
