Heavy Cover Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

jaklimber: This one had a good run. I just perused some of the original logs from over ten years ago. I wonder where some of those cachers are now. I knew when I placed this that it would have a limited lifespan - I think it had a surprising run, really. The camo has been displaced and sits in a pile nearby - maybe someone will grab it and use it to conceal another cache someday.

Geocache Description:

Geocaching can be frustrating when you encounter heavy cover. It's annoying to comb a gigantic area when your GPSr has 211-foot accuracy! Many times, winter helps the situation, but I'm not so sure with this one...

I think that one of the best ways to conceal a cache is to look at your surroundings, grab what's laying around the area and place it around your container. That's exactly what I did here, so when you're looking for this one keep that in mind...I found some great camo nearby that blends in and actually looks like it belongs, but alas, it's just stuff I stacked around the cache.

This particular placement can be tricky and you'll likely need some TOTT, so you should come prepared. Not sure what TOTT means? Try GeoLex - The Lexicon of Geocaching),

This is my 50th cache placement, so I've loaded it up with a bunch of goodies. FTF is welcome to take whatever they please as a prize.
