Geocache Description:

The first in our Super Stealth Series (SSS)! These are in high-muggle areas requiring you to 1) be VERY patient & stealthy, AND/OR 2) be ready to explain GeoCaching to whoever sees you. PLEASE ALWAYS use maximum stealth when retrieving and replacing these. We don't want them to disappear!

Due to the challenge, these caches will be high difficultly and you will need to hone your anti-muggle skills. You may need to wait minutes or even hours for the location to be vacant/accessible!


BYOP! (Bring Your Own Pen!) You will also need tweezers to retrieve the log. The container is naturally camo'd with its home.

This cache is near businesses (but in the public area) that are open long hours, 7 days per week, the seats in the nearby restaurant face directly at this cache, AND there is a dog park close by, so people will be hanging out in this area frequently. You should consider 1) bringing your dog, 2) getting some coffee/food, 3) bringing a book, 4) dressing warm in winter so you can hang out / walk around, 5) bringing a distraction, etc! It took me 20 minutes to place this cache!

This cache is not recommended (but certainly possible) when it is raining or snowing, for reasons that will make sense when you find it :)

NOTE: Hint is a big giveaway, so don't use it unless you must.

Congrats to estrek for FTF!

In case you were curious, the name of this cache was inspired by the nearby business and "loca" (Spanish for "crazy") for how crazy it is to avoid muggles as well as the idea that some of the businesses here are "local."
