GC2FQ4D Water Hazard? (Traditional Cache) in Maryland, United States created by sfcchaz

sfcchaz: With my pending retirement and subsequent move approaching quickly, I had to remove and archive this cache.

If you looked for this one today and it was missing, that means I was already there: log it with CO permission.

I really did not want to archive this one quite yet, but it was missing. So no need to recreate it.

Thanks to all those who found this cache and more thanks to those who gave it a favorite vote.

Geocache Description:

A small lock-n-lock using natural camouflage to match its surroundings. There is a set of unactivated travel bug tags for the FTF cacher. Any accumulation of snow will make this impossible. Autumn leaves will also make it more difficult. BYOP

This cache is located near a pond next to a putt-putt golf course. If you hit the water here, you need a lot of practice.

This cache may prove to be very difficult for those who have not seen this type of camouflage/hide before. The camouflage material the container is covered with does not match the native material at this specific location. The cache is hidden in plain sight, well the camouflage is, not the actual container. Although searching for this cache at night is easily done as for parking and the area around GZ, it would probably make the difficulty another 2 or 3 stars (if they went that high) due to the camouflage. There is no need to cross the drainage ditch/creek or get near the pond itself. What was that terrain rating? You do not need to dig through the foliage either.

Please place the cache back the way you found it and try to disguise your activity around the cache so the next cacher can have the same challenge you had.

Congratulations to the Co-FTF cachers: HKSFARM, unusualsuspect, wizardofmd69 and Dixiegurl Suzanne.
