Opatibus Prime Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Penny's pack: Stopped by to check on cache and found it to be missing again. Although I am sorry to see the graphics and punny nature of this hide go away, I think that it is best to archive it. Thanks to everyone who has stopped by over the years.

Geocache Description:


You may well have heard of Optimus Prime, the fictional Transformer character. He is the leader of the Autobots, a faction of heroic Transformers from the planet Cybertron who wage battles to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons. He is a heroic, brave, wise, and compassionate character who puts all his talent to use to improve the universe around him. Optimus has a strong sense of justice and righteousness, and has dedicated himself to the protection of all life, particularly the inhabitants of Earth; he will battle his foes with unyielding resolve.

Well, this cache is honor of his third cousin, twice removed, Opatibus. Unlike his celebrated cousin, Opatibus is more concerned with the more humble and thankless task of seeing to it that inhabitants of Earth (er, Pittsburgh) arrive at appointed destinations, a job he does with varying success. This cache is located across the street from a "prime" location if you are in need of such transport.

Just like the Transformers, you will need to go into stealth mode to make the grab. You will be able to park your cachemobile within feet of the container and if so, will block the line of sight of most muggles. The container is a camo'd paint container with strong affinity to its hiding spot. Please be sure to make sure it is well seated when leaving. Thanks! BYOP. Enjoy and make sure no Decepticons catch on to what you are doing!


Congrats to Jerode for the FTF!
