Geocache Description:


CACHE IS NOT AT POSTED COORDS


Please Read Before Attempting Your Adventure


Cache Quest of Fayetteville is a fun and challenging adventure consisting of 6 stages:

Stage 1 - The Beginning

Stage 2 - The Next Level*

Stage 3 - The Adventure*

Stage 4 - The Extreme*

Stage 5 - The Intense*

Stage 6 - The Insane Finale*

There are a couple puzzles to help get you started on your way. We have done away with the other puzzles throughout the quest, but don't be fooled, this is STILL a true 5/5 cache The further you advance, the more strenuous and challenging it becomes. It will take you over several miles and to areas of Fayetteville that you may have never visited, or even knew were there.

Throughout the Quest, there WILL BE clues to lead you to the final and most strenuous stage(s) of the challenge. COLLECT THE CLUES IN STAGE ORDER! The clues will be needed in the EXACT order that you find them. The compass is your “key” at the final stage! Not every stage has a clue but be sure to take note of any clues you find. DO NOT FORGET YOUR BLACK LIGHT!!! YOU WILL DEFINATELY NEED IT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY! You will even want to use it where you may not think you'll need it.

Tell us of your adventure in your log, but please DO NOT post any spoilers...don’t post pics that give away the clues of any stage of the challenge in your log. If you need assistance with any stage, feel free to email the CO. Just don't give up!
