One Mighty Big Blaze Traditional Cache
tjd181: I no longer work here and won't be returning to do maintenance. It was a fun 6 years.

DESCRIPTION UPDATED 11/24/10. COORDINATES ARE THE SAME.
This should be a simple C and D for everyone. This cache is hidden
just off the Schuylkill River Trail directly behind the office
building that I work in. If you come during normal work hours, and
I see you, I might even come out to say hi!
Although this cache is way too small to leave trackables, there
might be a 3,200 pound trackable sitting in the parking lot of the
office building just waiting for you to discover. Again, normal
work hours are the key. Just review TB3VQ9B before coming
and you should be able to find it pretty quickly! (Please note that
someone else in the office building also purchased a vehicle almost
exact the same as the one the TB is attached. If you don't see the
TB immediately where described, then you are probably looking at
the wrong car!)
Also to be found nearby is a Benchmark, (less than 10 feet from the
cache). It was not until I came out to do maintenance on my cache
did I realize that one was located so close. You can download the
coordinates for KV1839 before coming and you should have a
quick find.
As for the name of the cache, look across the street to the
apartments. In August 2008 a massive blaze totally destroyed three
of these buildings and damaged two others. According to Channel 6's
website, the fire destroyed 185 apartments; left 375 people
homeless; required 80 fire companies to fight the blaze; and caused
over $100 million in damages. They rebuilt the buildings in the
same appearance as before the fire...let's hope things work out
better this time around!
Watch out for landmines near ground zero. Muggles will be abound
all the time. Park legally along the nearby streets. Please don't
go onto the SEPTA railroad tracks near the cache. This cache is not
part of the SRT series, but it can be done along with those.
So remember, your looking for the geocache, the benchmark, and
maybe a large trackable. Happy Hunting!
