Geocache Description:


Small container that will hold a few geocoins and trade items. Bring your own pen. Sig item and a Maine Appalachian Trail GeoPin for the FTF.

WARNING - At times there will be a lot of muggles in this area - be stealthy!!

If you are trying to by the FTF, be careful. Please follow the following guidelines or you will be forever cursed! The curse? Read the following guidelines. If you do not want to be part of what I hope will be a long series, please let someone else be the FTF.

Guidelines:

1. If you are the First To Find this cache, you will be cursed if you choose not to place another new "Curse of the FTF" cache within 2 months, in order to extend the series.
2. If you choose to avoid the curse by placing the next cache in this series, the resulting cache must contain the words "Curse of the FTF # " in it's title; subsequent cache titles should reflect the appropriate series number.
3. The cache must be placed within 30 miles of Augusta Maine.
4. You may choose any type of cache (i.e. Traditional, Puzzle, etc) and any type/size of container you desire.
5. Send a message with the geocache code number to each cache owner so they can add it to their "Curse of the FTF # " description page where the # is the next number in the series. List all caches and FTFs of this series on your Cache page.
6. The nature of the curse is that if you fail to continue the series by posting a new "Curse of the FTF" within the allotted 2 months, you will be prevented from ever getting another FTF until the curse is lifted.
7. These guidelines should appear on your cache page.

Thanks for playing. This idea comes from a similar cache series located in Manassas Virginia. That series made it to #14 before being broken. May we go a lot further with this one!
