OReviewer: Hello,

As there's been no response to my earlier note, I am forced to archive this listing.

If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future, just contact me email, including the GC Code, and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Thanks,

Geocache Description:



Pterosaurs were predatory flying reptiles that ruled the skies from 228 to 65 million years ago. Some species had a wing span of up to 40 feet. They were probably warm blooded, partially haired and although not "true" dinosaurs, were closely related to them. They thrived during the Late Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and disappeared at the same time as the dinosaurs during the K–T extinction event.

While attempting this 3 stage MultiCache, transport yourself back 200 million years and imagine yourself hiking along a seaside trail. Please exercise caution while observing these incredible creatures. WARNING: Pterosaurs are only interested in 2 things, Eating and Reproducing .... In either case, it would be best not to attract their attention!


The Cache (Final) is an 8 inch Lock N Lock container that holds Cache Specific Geopins, Dinosaurs, Log and Pencils. Please Replace the Cache Container, Top Down!

Suggested parking is in the Tulip Springs Lot off Brookside Drive between South Orange and Northfield Avenues ( See Waypoints). Stage 1 will take you away from where you parked and Stages 2 and 3 back towards it. We suggest you use the wide road with short bushwhacks to access all stages, however many other alternatives exist.


Please do not include photos of the Stages in your logs.
