Geocache Description:

GC.com would like you to know that since you will have to do something "special" to finish this cache and open the cache container, like be able to use a key, this cache will have to be listed as a "Multi-Stage" cache. It really is just a little more than a traditional cache. GC.com would also like to remind you to READ the cache listing carefully, the text is from the Journal of Mr. Incredible! and requires careful reading...

A Tribute to:

The Greatest Cache
That Never Was...

"This cache is a simple one.  Find stage one, and then find the final ammo box.   That's it, end of story..."

That's it, he says!  Ha!  Cachers have no idea what they are getting into...

"The cache is hidden in a park close to the 2008 Midwest Geobash.  The walk to the cache location will be a great nature walk!"

This guy is really good!  I don't think I'm paying him enough to write for me!  (Well, yeah, I guess I am, but he's STILL good!)  "Great nature walk?"  How about a REALLY LONG nature HIKE!  Hee, hee!

artwork by Superman fan - B.K. "You are looking for a decon container in a tree stump.  Inside the container is a key.  This key opens an ammo box that is just a few feet away."

  Nice set up, they'll never know what hit them!  What's REALLY inside the ammo box is a camping salt & pepper shaker.  What's great about it, is that it opens at each end.  A set of coordinates in hidden in each end, and of course, they go off in different directions...

"Good Luck!"

Yup, good luck indeed, you are going to need it!




However...

That was before I heard from the reviewer telling me that ALL of the stages I had hidden in Bixler Lake Park in Kendallville were too close to other caches already hidden for the bash...  

DRAT!  It took me weeks to get this cache ready to go!   And then, I had to go back and take them all down!  DOUBLE DRAT!!

  This was going to be AWESOME!  Cachers were going to find that each of the coordinates took them in different directions to a second stage.  THEN, they would find the second stages each had a set of coordinates that took them even farther away from each other to a third stage.  Only then would they find that one set leads to the final cache, while the other set took them BACK to the start!!!

Like I said, it was GOING to be awesome...

I spent a YEAR looking for another place to hide this series - NOTHING!  No park area was even close to the size that I needed!    

So what do I do now?  

Hey, how about Patton Park?  A nice little county park, with just a few caches in it.  That's where the final cache site for the Pixar Pals Series was.  That should open up an area for a cache like this...

So, I spent a week getting this one all set up, same as before - only to find out that again I had several of my stages way too close to other caches...

I give up!
 
There is a small area in Metea Park North, that used to be the area used for Mr. Incredible! and the Attack of the Clones.  I'll just put up a simple two-step cache there and be done with it!  

I even saved the ammo box and the key...  

The ammo box is hidden at the given coordinates.  A decon container with the key is about 40 feet away.


so...


The final cache container is an ammo box.  Please remember that Metea Park is not open on Mondays...

Enjoy what might have been...
