?? Virtual Geocaching ?? Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Ajax One: The bush that this cache was hidden in has grown tremendously over the years.
There is no easily accessible place to hide a cache anymore.
Unfortunately, even though this geocache has brought over 30 geocachers to the site from around the world, I am regretfully archiving this cache due to maintenance problems. 😢😢
It was great for the six years that it lasted.

When the "Visiting Alien Geocacher" appears, give him all ten of your little geocache NANO marbles.

You can check your final solution for this puzzle at >> GeoChecker.com.

Actual cache container is a 35mm camoed film container hidden near a turnout right off the main road.
There is no need to cross the road to find the cache.
Please use stealth, watch for muggles and traffic.

No need to tear anything up, the container is is not in the bushes.

When replacing the container look for the little ledge that it sits on and place the musk melon sized rock against it to keep it in place.
