Pandora's Box has been opened again. This time it is in a very popular Hamilton County Park. Participants must stay on designated trails until they get close to the designated area and follow all park rules. In addition, the current annual sticker price is $10/year; Daily is $3. HCPD Registration # 080408-01.
Several Emails were received requesting another try. It took awhile to decide how to go about it this time and here it is. My ultimate goal is to build some enthusiasm into finding other caches. The coordinates listed above are not the actual coordinates,
DO NOT GO THERE!
Pandora’s Box in Cincinnati
Pandora's Box -- This mystical artifact, that appears to be nothing more than a large clear plastic box, is my version of an ancient Greek mythological box that, when opened by the beautiful Pandora, released all of the evil that is in the world today. Only one item remained after the evil was released. It was a thing called Hope. If this cache is found, it can be opened and this thing can be revealed to each Geocacher.
The Evil is represented by five KEYs, that are Travel Bugs, moving from cache to cache by your fellow Geocachers. A portion of the secret to the coordinates, required to find Pandora's Box, has been divided up and placed on each KEY. The KEYs can be found by clicking on each of the KEYs listed below. This will take you to the Travel Bug page for that KEY to reveal the last updated location. If it is listed as being in a cache, you must then get to that location before someone else finds it and moves it. Once you have put together the secret for the coordinates from all the KEYs, you have only to go find this cache.
PRETTY EASY, HUH? - - - NOT!!
DOs, DON'Ts and MAYBEs:
1) Keep these KEYs in the Greater Cincinnati area (if they are in Houston, for example, they will probably not come up here to find the cache).
2) OTHER TRAVEL BUGs (which are designed to cover a lot of miles) and KEYs from this challenge should not be put into this cache.
3) Quickly release and log your movement of the KEYs, so that others have some chance to find them.
4) Keep the KEYs moving, but be careful for accuracy of recording the numbers and their positions off of each tag.
5) Hoarding of KEYs was one of the evils that was let out of the box. BUT, remember murder and mayhem were also let out.
7) Cooperation and Sharing was not let out of the box, but don't let that stop you.
8) After gathering the coordinates from the 5 keys, add .386 to the Northerly coordinates and .021 to the Westerly coordinates. (This lets me move the box without changing the KEYs.)
