Geocache Description:

Small camo in a public place.

There are three basic types of camouflage:
Crypsis, where the idea is to blend with the background and become virtually invisible; Dazzle, to adopt a colouration or pattern so bizarre it confuses position or outline; and Mimesis, to mimic the appearance of something innocuous, repellent or dangerous.

This cache uses the latter method. But which variant?

It is annoyingly small (only room for a little scroll log, so BYO pen) and out in the open in a public place —the location can be very heavily muggled at times, hence stealth may be required. And it is very well disguised.

In other words it's a nasty, sneaky, wretched, crafty and infuriating little cache!

Good luck!

Congratulations to richlink and Go Grandys for a dual First to Find! I'm sorry that there isn't a FTF prize for them to share, but that's just another rotten thing about micro caches!
