IMC No.4 S Aus-Lava Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Urdera: The original cache has been misplaced. As the IMC competition is no longer active and I do not recall the original coordinates to replace it, it is being archived. Someone is free to place a new cache in the same area.

Geocache Description:

These are not the coordinates of the cache but are in fact the coordinates to a fine example to a Volcanic Plug. Firstly you will need to find the primary cache IMC No.4P AUS Mt.Coochin (GC18QDY) which you will need to do first.

Mount Coonowrin is a spectacular example of a volcanic plug where the mountain has eroded away leaving just the core of solidified molten lava. Unfortunately you are not allowed to walk to this one as apparently it is very unstable and dangerous. The cache is a small sistema clip lock container near the mountain with magnificent views along the way.

This "secondary cache" can only be found with international team working because:

This cache is just one cache of a set of 12 caches named IMC No. 4 … (IMC = International Multi-Cache), dedicated to the theme Fire, one of the four elements of Earth.

These caches are hidden in 12 Countries worldwide:

DE= Deustchland, PT = Portugal, XX = Xxxxxxxxxx, Etc....

In each country there is a "primary cache" and a "secondary cache".


The 12 primary caches are named "IMC No. 4 P-x - yyy" and the 12 secondary caches "IMC No. 4 S-x - zzz" where x is the country code given above and yyy and zzz can be any additional name.

The primary caches are traditional caches. The only difference is, that they contain beside the "normal" content (stash-note, logbook, pencil, give-aways) a "lists of hints" for the secondary caches.

To be able to search and find a secondary cache you need all hints from all 12 primary caches!

As the primary caches are scattered all over the world it will either require a lot of travelling or (and this is the intention of the IMC No.4) - International Cooperation:

If you want to find this secondary cache, you should:
1. Find a primary IMC No.4 cache.
2. Contact the finders of the other 12 primary IMC No.4 caches and exchange the hints.
3. Puzzle the hints together and
4. Go and seek the secondary cache.

The IMC No.4 team wish you good luck!
