A week ago my co-worker and co-cacher Fivecount told me about a
cache he did outside Richmond, VA while visiting his girlfriend. It
was a simple guard rail micro off the highway rated at a 5 for
difficulty!!! Apparently a notorious cache named
“NYAGRC” (not your average guard rail cache). I
marveled at this – a cache with 20 finds and over 60 DNFs
(plus how many unlogged searches) over a period of 3 1/2 years. How
could that be? What could possibly make a guard rail hide so hard?
I may never know unless I go find it I suppose.
I think part of the mystery to this cache is when scanning the logs
there were very little “got a hint from” so-and-so, or
references to PAF. The hide has remained a secret this long due to
tight lipped cachers. BTW, Five count added his DNF to the
list.
Of course this got me thinking… what would one have to do
to make a guard rail hide so hard that there were more "frowns"
than "smileys"? Well I studied some guardrails for a while and came
up with this one. I don’t dare believe it to be a 5 or even a
4 but I’m gonna give it a 3.5 for now and see how it goes.
Tell me what you think.
Hey, it’s just a guard rail micro… how hard can it be?
It‘s not like I put a magnetic nano on a piece of WWII
artillery! LOL
Please return exactly as found.
And if you just don't like micros or this one gets you too hot
just head down the road to "Billy Goats Gruff" to cool off.
CONGRATS to Pens66 for the FTF!
