The Curse of the FTF #12 - (Nebraska Chapter) Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Heartland Cacher: Greetings,

It has been a while since I first looked at (The Curse of the FTF #12 - (Nebraska Chapter)). I can't find any recent responses about maintaining this cache so it will be archived and removed from the active cache listings.

When you have repaired this cache, drop me a line and I can review it again for listing on the geocaching.com site.

If you don't care to continue on with this project, please remove any remaining cache bits from the area.

Thanks for your understanding,
Heartland Cacher
Your friendly Geocaching.com Volunteer Cache Reviewer

Geocache Description:

The given coordinates will lead you to a small container with instructions that will lead you to an ammo can stuffed with goodies. You may or may not find small containers with helpful (hopefully) hints. This cache is intended to teach the Caching Community a little bit about magnetic north, true north and declination. The declination for this area is about 4 degrees East. Knowing whether to add or subtract is the key to understanding the phenomenon of declination.

This is a CURSED cache for all First to Finders out there. If you are the FTF for a cache in this series, you are cursed with the obligation to place another "THE CURSE OF THE FTF" cache and therefore extend the series. Guidelines for this series are below: 1. FTF'er should place the next cache in the series [THE CURSE OF THE FTF #13 (Nebraska Chapter)] within 2 months, otherwise the curse will prevent you from ever getting another FTF again!!! HA HA!! 2. You can only be a FTF for this series once. This spreads the FTF love around, and gives others a chance to play along. 3. Cache can be any type of cache (Puzzle, Multi, etc.). 4. You must include this set of guidelines in your listing for the series, and include the list of all who have been cursed before you. Those who have been cursed so far in this series: bosac - started curse May 4, 2008 j.a.g.k.
