St. Mary Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Go catch: As previously mentioned, I’m currently at GZ to remove the cache. Im also grateful for all those who found this one, but the time is right to open the space up for others more local.

I feel a month’s notice was adequate and should anyone have contacted me before now, I would happily have extended its lifespan.

TB’s visited for my caching mileage, considering they are part of me as human trackable x2 after all 😉
