This cache is located in the community of Skyview Ranch in a park next to a pond, it is a short 4 stage multi with all the stages very close to each other it should take between 15 and 30 minutes to complete. The cache has had alot of thought put into it and is very creative and original, surely to become a favorite among thinkers. But anyone can do it with a little imagination.
Welcome to Greatbigdiddy's Magic Pinecone. When I was a young lad I had the lucky opportunity to meet a Magic Pinecone. We became the best of friends and that magic pinecone taught me some important lessons in life, he taught me 4 actually. The first thing he taught me was how to swim you see he showed me that the secret was all about floatation. (don't worry you don't need to swim to find this cache). The second thing that the old magic pinecone taught me was how to hook a fish a very important lesson in my life. The third thing he taught me about was the art of Deception another handy tool in the trade of life. Finally and most importantly that magic pinecone taught me about the Rules of Attraction a lesson I use every day. This Geocache is dedicated to my friend The Magic Pinecone for the 4 life lessons he taught me. To solve this cache and sign the log you will have to use these 4 lessons and that will lead you to success and a chance to meet Greatbigdiddy's Magic Pinecone and take a selfie photo with him to post in the image gallery so bring your camera and although there is a pencil to sign the log it might be a good idea to bring your own as well just in case.
Now lets talk about this hide a little bit, when you arrive at Ground Zero you will find a "container" with a smaller airtight container hidden inside. The trick is you will have to find a way to get that airtight container out of the other "container" without moving or taking the "container" apart in any way other than removing the top.... that you are allowed to do ... everything you need to get to the airtight container inside is right there close by in your environment. Once you figure out the secret ... I'll tell you only this (it takes about 3). Now if you want to use the encoded hint below you can but I suggest trying to figure it out on your own first when you are there ... at that point if you just can't work it out then try reading the hint. But it will pretty much spell it out for you so don't wreck the fun by reading it before you have tried. Thanks now go out and have some fun trying to find Greatbigdiddy's Magic Pinecone.
Cheers!!!
