Geocache Description:

A magnetic Nano cache. Bring your own pencil.

While driving to the Abu Dhabi Endurance Village we saw in the dusty haze this huge man-made "mountain" and thought - what the heck is that and why? Jebel Hafeet is not close enough? Like so many things that puzzle us here we decided to name it Mt. Abu Dhabi. So we drove about the desert a bit until we found a spot that had a nice view looking back towards it. The cache is on the fence of a Ground Water Assessment Well in the Sabkha to the west. The Sabkha was a little soft in spots but being well traveled it drive ok but I am sure during the winter months it could be a nasty challenge for most vehicles. So plan wisely.
