'Z' Marks the Spot Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

_Rat: Archiving this cache. The 'Z' isn't holding it's shape and the vegetation in this spot is thinning out so much that it's leaving the hiding spot exposed. It's still a great spot for the view and for fishing.

Geocache Description:

It's like an 'X' but with less backstabbing.


ZTo find this cache, you'll want to follow the basic principles of pirate treasure hunting with one exception - the cache is not buried.

Basic Rules of Pirate Treasure Hunting

1. Pirates create reminders in the world around them of where they left the goods to jog their memory on where to find it again.

2. At the same time, the reminders are ambiguous enough to keep the hide secret so that others aren't likely to stumble upon it.

This tucked away cove offers shade, a cool breeze and an amazing view of the river. Please, watch your step going in and out.

The Cache

When you find 'Z' please do not move him from his spot. Everything needs to stay where it is. Just unscrew the cache to get to the log.

Also, Photos are welcome as long as 'Z' and his hiding spot aren't directly visible. Pictures of 'Z' can be posted to any outside source (instagram, facebook, message boards, blogs, etc.) just not directly here on the cache page. This way each and every geocacher has an fair opportunity to find the spot.
