Geocache Description:

Please be aware that during certain times of the year hunting is allowed in this area. Check the information board for more information.

A series of caches about chemistry. Any puzzle caches in this series should not be too difficult with the answers probably located on Wikipedia. Thanks to Wikipedia for additional source material. BYOP.


Why do people get into chemistry?  Maybe it was the burning magnesium demonstration?  Maybe it was the solid potassium in water leaving a hole in the ceiling?  Or maybe it was the allure of thermite. List your favorite chemical reaction (if you have one) with your find.  You are looking for a small square glass container with some cammo tape on it but some bright green still peeking out.

Thermite in action

CONGRATS to superior o on another FTF. I thought I was crazy out here placing these. At least I had the wind at my back for the walk back. What is it that drives one on in the face of a howling headwind? Has to be geocaching! Look for more in the series.
