Diminishing Hope #1 Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

inspicio: One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Geocache Description:


This cache is the first in a series of 5 caches called 'Diminishing Hope'. The first 4 caches however can be attempted by themselves (as a traditional cache) without having to find the others.

If you choose to complete all 5 caches in the series you will need to seek and find the first 4 caches before attempting the 5th because each cache contains one or two digits that are needed to open the locked final cache.

However, every step of the way the caches will become more and more difficult, smaller and smaller and will have harder clues, hence the name diminishing hope. So even though you might find the first couple easy, you might end up in a pickle for the last few!

This cache can be found in Blackbutt Park, just off Ganmain Road and shouldn't be a trouble at all, it's pretty much a drive-by cache. Before you go in, I'd advise finding a stick to rid of all the spider webs that were absolutely everywhere when I placed the cache!

Good luck!

(NOTE: Diminishing Hope 4 and 5 will be listed within a few days)
