Geocache Description:

This is my tribute to the "Original Stash" in honor of Geocaching turning 10 years young.
The Related web page link will take you to the Original Stash page. Hopefully you all know the story of the "Original Stash and how it was hidden... Enjoy!!!

I wanted to place a replica to the " GCF The Original Stash" for sometime now and this is as good an opportunity as any. I am going to copy it, as best I can, in every way possible (right down to the contents and the log with the previous finders on it). Can you image that this was a 1/1 cache back then, YIKES!!! I know they had no idea it would balloon into what it has become.

Contents will include:

a copy of DeLorme Topo USA software
video (George of the Jungle)
book (H. Ross Perot paperback)
FOOD (The O.C.B, black-eyed peas actually)
money ($5)
a slingshot

( I must tell you that some of this stuff was EXTREMELY hard to come by 10 years later!!!) but I did it.

The contents of the marked container are to stay in the container and in the cache. This is a time capsule, of sorts, placed 10 years ago today by Dave Ulmer and is/was the start of Geocaching as we know it.

Coords averaged for 360+ seconds.
Accuracy : 8.8 ft.
Elevation : 623 ft.


Enjoy & Happy Caching!!!
