Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the "Cache the WORLD" series-- caches created to bring interesting containers, hides, and techniques from around the world to the cachers of Okinawa. Many of these caches will be unfamiliar, some you might want to use yourself (dozo!), and others haven't been done here for good reason, but each is common *somewhere* in the world. If you've cached off-island, you are invited to add to this series and share your own "Cache the WORLD" experience.

COUNTRY: USA
LOCALE: Suburban Illinois
CACHE: Regular caches in America, when you can find them, tend not to differ too greatly from regular caches here, at least in type of container. But one interesting difference is the type of camo. I've seen quite a few tuppers camoed like this in the states, and lots of those were in the suburbs of Illinois, often where it was not particularly helpful. I'll be curious to see if you think this camo conceals the cache better, or gives its location away. Caching in random suburbs often leads me to surprisingly cool hidden locations, and this cache is no exception. This hilltop is actually another long-lost castle site, and the cache is hidden on the other side of a half circle of standing kanji around what appears to be the original Tree of Gondor. Seriously! Have a look around and explore the area. Its quite interesting!

*The FTF prize is a magnetic micro cache ready for you to place.*
