Classical Elements - Earth
This is a series of caches based upon the four Classical Elements of water, earth, fire and air.
In order to get the cache from the cache container you will need to use some of the appropriate element.
The cache is a bison tube, at the bottom of a cache container, about 8" deep.
Although the bison tube is aluminium, and thus not magnetic, it is attached to a steel keyring. Decide which Earth element can help you.
I placed the cache during the Winter, when access was much easier. However during the Summer it is far more overgrown, although the actual cache is in a clear area. Tree coverage will make the GPS reading less accurate
There seems to have been much difficulty with people not being prepared to retrieve the cache. If you haven't come suitably prepared, please use the equipment provided at the ' a bit of help' waypoint location (about 10m away at the large oak on the other side of the clearing) - it's a magnet on a string, that will recover the cache. Poking away with a stick will only damage the container.
