No kids allowed Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MajorDad: Tried to make a maintenance visit a couple times since disabling, but always stymied by construction crews. The project looks to be a big one and might take a few more months. That will certainly affect approaching the cache from the way (and so many others) did... via the fishermuggle's trail. You can still get to GZ via the posted waypoints, but it's rather dangerous due to one area of crumbling clay along the coral and yet another due to the heavy thickets all over the rocks. The only "safe" and unencumbered way to GZ is to swim and that's not advisable either due to proximity to the base and trash beach... not to mentioned heavy waves crashing into sharp coral.

In addition, the area now shows evidence of fishermuggle activity directly at the cache site! I spotted some netting over the very large rock the can once hid behind. Perhaps someone popped it open looking for lures and never resealed it; I don't know.

So because the approach lanes are no longer in accordance with the cache write up and the can/contents are clearly destroyed, I'm archiving this one. Perhaps once construction work is completed and we assess the new landscape, it'll be a nice area once again for a coastal cache. But for now, ta ta and thanks to all who visited through the years!

Geocache Description:

Located right next to Uken beach. This cache will require a climb. The kids should be left at the beach or at the bottom where the climb starts. Open to all cachers now.

I went out and was going to replace Cliff hanger kinda, but I decided to drop this cache instead. You are looking for a large Ammo can. It will require a straight up climb, and once at the top you will have to climb over a bunch of sharp coral, so make sure you wear sturdy shoes. Pants aren't required but may be a good thing to have. Do not do this cache at night. Ensure you place the container back and cover it up nicely. I saw a fisherman while I was out here, so I am sure this area gets a little bit of activity. A waypoint has been added for free parking. There is a FTF prize as well as a STF prize. One is trackable, and the other is not. Whoever finds this first can choose what they want. There are no toys for the kids in this cache. Make sure you bring those large trackables that need a nice home. One last thing, If you don't go at low tide you will get a little wet if you don't time the waves right.

Congrats to M&L and Skoolziez for the Co-FTF!
