Challenging Night Cache #700
I have been
debating what to hide for my 700 cache placement, I wanted to do
something out of the ordinary but could not come up with any ideas.
Last night I did a little caching with BAPMAN and paldog0603. The
goal was to find a night cache for BAPMAN’s 2000th
find. We did this and went on to find 4 night caches in total. I
really liked the night caches we did and they were all really fun.
I decided then and there that #700 would be a night cache but where
to hide it. This morning I woke up with the best spot for this
cache in my mind and went straight to working on it.
This cache will
probably be one of the more challenging if not the most challenging
night cache you have ever done. I will give you a few WARNINGS and
you would be a smart cacher to heed them.
-
It is recommend that you don’t do
this cache alone
-
The terrain can be uneven and unpredictable
watch your footing!
-
DO NOT enter any water. It will be dark and you
won't know how deep it is.
-
In the winter DO NOT walk on any ice in the
area!!!
-
Bring extra batteries for your flashlight and
GPSr.
-
Make sure your GPS tracking is turned ON.
-
There will be some small hills and bushwacking.
Be careful.
While looking for this cache you will need to
know:
Three orange dots will signify the start of the Night Cache
Two
orange dots means the trail splits. One of the trails will have a
dead end.
One
Orange dot and One White dot means you have hit a dead end.
When you start finding only white dots you are close to the
cache.
X
marks the spot for the final. The container is within one foot of
the X.
If
you come across more than one white reflector this was done to make
the trail you need to follow easier because of the distance or
brush in the area.
There
are some dead ends to this cache, this is why I recomend that
you keep your tracking on. Do yourself a favor and mark a waypoint
at the intersections so you can find your way back. This cache will
be a sugnificant hike and may take some time.
At
the beginning of this cache there is a split in the reflective
trail. You will have to decide which route to take right off the
bat. Make your decisions carefully and maybe, just maybe, you won't
make any wrong turns.
If
you would like (it is not required) state how many wrong turns you
made while doing this cache in your log.
FYI: There were over 120 reflective dots used for this
cache.
Please Do Not find this
cache during the daytime. This should be done at
night.
