Geocache Description:

GOTCHA Challenge – TYCOon Lagoon (06/01/2010)

You are seeking a cache which is part of the GOTCHA Mega-Multi Challenge. To complete the challenge, you must log each cache in the series and obtain the information needed to locate the final puzzle cache. For more information on completing the challenge, consult the GOTCHA Challenge - Success cache listing (GC160ZF).



This cache is the gatekeeper cache for the GOTCHA Challenge series.

I've read quite a few articles in the newspaper recently about individuals who, blindly following their GPSr, found themselves axle deep in mud in the middle of a corn field, floating down a river in their 4x4, lost in the desert, or stuck under a low bridge.

Geocachers of course know that while GPSr technology is amazing, a little bit of wisdom and common sense must also be employed on the part of the operator in order to remain safe and not appear to be a total idiot.

This cache is placed with that knowledge in mind. This is an easy cache provided you completely read and understand this writeup and use a little common sense before you go blindly trudging off in the direction of that little arrow.

There is no need to trespass, no need to climb any fences, and definitely no need to bushwhack. You've been warned. Fail to heed these words of wisdom at your own peril and public embarrassment.

B.Y.O.P. Please make sure you place the container back and out of sight so that others may enjoy the cache as well.

Note: The numbers in this cache were updated on June 1st, 2010 as a result of needing to slightly move the final when replacing the cache during a recent maintenance visit. Make sure you have the matching requirements page for the final and numbers from this cache (comparing the dates) before attempting to complete the challenge.
