[quote]
You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to maintain proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.). You may temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have a chance to fix the problem. This feature is to allow you a reasonable amount of time – normally a few weeks – in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing.

Because of the effort required to maintain a geocache, we ask that you place physical caches in your usual caching area and not while on a vacation or business trip. It is best when you live within a manageable distance from the cache placements to allow for return visits. Geocaches placed during travel may not be published unless you are able to demonstrate an acceptable maintenance plan, which must allow for a quick response to reported problems. An acceptable maintenance plan might include the username of a local geocacher who will handle maintenance issues in your absence.[/quote]

Como owner, se tiver planos para recolocar a cache, por favor, contacte-me por [url=http://www.geocaching.com/email/?u=btreviewer]e-mail[/url].

Lembro que a eventual reactivação desta cache passará pelo mesmo processo de análise como se fosse uma nova cache, com todas as implicações que as guidelines actuais indicam.

Se no local existe algum container, por favor recolha-o a fim de evitar que se torne lixo (geolitter).

Obrigado

Geocache Description:

The cache is a 35 mm container
No pencil
in Observation in one of the corner of the park trails

During the working trip to Brazil I took some time to Travel, How Not in the world's most famous waterfalls.

The Iguazu Falls

Cataratas do Iguaçu In Portuguese
Cataratas del Iguazú In Spanish

I know that according to the rules of the game is not acceptable to plant a cache, in parks which involve a monetary payment to enter.

But nevertheless I decided to plant a cache, and even a few caches in the park is also the Brazilian side and Argentinian side.

To those who know and been there there's no need to describe the sense of the tremendous power of the waterfalls.

The falls are located along a 2.7 km section of the river, about 20 km as the crow flies from where they poured into the river Parana, at the common border of two countries with Paraguay. Total system contains about 275 waterfalls maximum height is 82 feet. Their lives fall in two steps and their time to more than 6.25 million cubic meters per hour.

Near the falls were founded three cities of Foz do Iguaçu Brazil, Argentina and Puerto Iguazu Ciudad del Este in Paraguay. Nearby, a dam was built Aiteifo. The vast majority of the falls are in Argentina territory can watch them closely and explore them, but the panoramic view is possible only to the territory of Brazil.

The most famous waterfall is a "waterfall Devil's Throat" (Garganta del Diablo; Garganta do Diabo) located on the border between the countries. Shaped like a horseshoe with a width of 150 meters and 700 meters.

The national parks:

Argentina Iguazu National Park includes the park itself covers an area of 492 square kilometers, and a nature reserve area of 63 square kilometers. Beginning in 1909 but he was declared officially in 1934. Brazil Iguazu National Park was established in 1939 and it covers an area of ??1700.86 sq km, of which 11.36 sq km island in the river areas.

On the first day I walked on the Brazilian side and the sights were great I took about 600 pictures.

I hope you enjoy
