Geocache Description:

We found several caches in the Courtenay/Comox area with an intriguing theme, and decided to begin a similar "string" here.

Here's the deal...The FTF prize in this cache is a set of co-ordinates; they will take the FTFer to where we have hidden a ready-to-hide cache (any size, and containing a log book and stash sheet and whatever else). The FTFer can then hide this cache wherever they like and get it published as Contagion 2; if they also leave co-ordinates for their FTFer to find another ready-to-go cache, the contagion will spread. I think the "Pass It On" caches have reached something like Pass It On 15 now, and it seemed like a great way to encourage cache placements.

This germ is hidden about a meter from the trail, at the trail head. Use stealth.

Update..August 27th. That WAS the original plan..however a new rule has arrived in town, and we are no longer able to hide caches that, like this one, encourage other cachers to hide caches. Complicated, but I hope you get the drift. So I'm afraid this was a VERY short "string" indeed. Too bad. The cache itself is still viable though.
