Geocache Description:

Please feel free to post your truest feelings about this sorry cache. Spoilers and pictures of the actual hide are encouraged so others won't need to waste any more time than absolutely necessary finding it.
Nice, friendly, insincere posts may actually get deleted. Expect ridicule either way

Most Valuable Player?
Nope.

Marvelous Visual Presentation?
Not so much.

Man-eating Venetian Platypus?
Not hardly (though interesting).

No, this is Montgomery's Very Pathetic cache.

The coordinates should get you within 75' or so of the cache. I didn't spend a lot of time trying to get an accurate location -- it just wasn't that important at the time. The location isn't historic or scenic and there's a bit of trash about (CITO if you must?). In fact, I don't know why anyone would want to come here except to boost their dismal cache numbers.

It's not a difficulty/terrain of  1.5/1.5 -- it's probably only a 0.15/you-might-die, but that's not an option.

The container is a magnetic (hint, hint) pill bottle, but I listed it as "other" so "micro-haters" can't filter it out. It's a rather ugly duck tape color that makes it look right at home in this area. It may or may not be waterproof -- I don't know yet.

Eventually, the log will get filled or wet, or both, and I probably won't maintain it even though I drive by this cache every day on my way to Pilates, because, you know, it's a really pathetic cache.

It should go without saying that there is no pen or pencil in the cache, so you should bring your own (if, in fact, you care to acknowledge that you found this cache).

Of course, there's no room for any trade items. Yeah, there's probably a place in this area to put out a nice, regular-sized cache, but that would have required some, uh, effort.

No FTF prize unless you want to buy yourself something at one of the local businesses while you're here. Go ahead -- you know you deserve it for having been the first to find such a pathetic cache.


What's even more pathetic is that this cache is an exact copy of {now archived} TLC (Tuscaloosa's Lamest Cache) by Earle B. Fisk (see related web page)
