Fourche Four-Way Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Chuck Walla: Greetings from Geocaching.com!

Since you have not responded to my reviewer log about your cache, the cache has been archived.

Some time ago, I posted a note to your cache page requesting a response from you to post what you were planning to do with the cache on the page and to send me a note. I have no record of a response, and no response tells me that you are not planning on replacing or repairing this cache. If I am wrong with that assumption, please let me know promptly. [b]I can always unarchive the cache for you if needed.[/b]

Sincerely,

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


Regular size camo'd generic Lock-&-Lock type.

Finding this general area won't be a problem. Finding a place to park won't be a problem. Walking to the cache won't be a problem. Finding the actual cache SHOULDN'T be a problem. What WILL be a problem is finding time to actually retrieve it.

All I can suggest is to park your car in the most obvious place & act lost. People do that all the time here so passers-by won't pay you a bit of attention. However, people walking around in the little field MIGHT draw attention from the "good samaritan". It'll almost certainly be the "Can I help you with something" type.....but in geocaching, usually you want as LITTLE attention as possible.

Turn the car off & listen for vehicles carefully. When you hear none in the distance, from either of the four ways, then make the flying mad dash to the cache. Maybe leave a decoy in the vehicle to "act lost" while you hide in the woods to prepare for the flying mad dash back to the car. The decoy will just appear to be the typical passing-through-person, trying to figure out which road they are suppose to take.

As you can probably tell by now, patience & stealth are necessary attributes here. You'll be rewarded with a cache with some neat stuff to read (while you're hiding in the woods & your partners acting lost), a few cool goodies, a nice little FTF prize (if you're first of course), a smiley, & the smug knowledge that you can wind-sprint a hundred feet or so, beside an often busy intersection, and never be seen at all. :) :)

Pre-Hint: This just might be an ideal cache to use the kids as an excuse. (Does that sound mean?? :) ) If you have the whole family with you, have mom & kids wander around like they are picking up rocks or something, while dad slips into the woods. Nobody passing by will ever suspect a thing. You'll just look like the other 100 tourists who stop here every day. :)

NOTE DON'T try to cheat & drive into the field....unless you have nail-proof tires. There use to be a building here & there's odds & ends scattered in the grass. Besides that, doing it that way will probably gain more unwanted attention than just parking where you SHOULD park....maybe even from a State Trooper who doesn't know what you're doing. They use this intersection often too. :) )

You'll often find caching pencils and/or laminated caching info cards in my caches. These are for you to take & use if you need them. They aren't SWAG that you must trade for. Please just take 1 of each though, so others can have a chance also.
