Black Box: a Field Puzzle Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

penguins42: I took a look at the box a few weeks ago and determined the problem with it. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like there is a reliable long-term fix for it and so I am archiving the cache. I had fun putting the box together and learnt quite a lot in the process so I'm sad to see it go but at the same time am glad that I could share it with a few people.

Geocache Description:


Black Box

At the posted coordinates you will find the cache, a black box. You must open it in order to sign the logbook. This does not require any special information, tools or skills. Note however that a very small segment of the population will find the cache to be a true black box.

The cache is about 2km return from P6 and mostly follows trails, save for the last 100m which is not on a path. There is a reason the area is called Stony Swamp... wearing rubber boots is well-advised in the spring.
