Attributes: Available during winter Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Tom.dog: I am removing certain geocaches that are physically degraded, that represent potential private property conflicts, or are preventing otherwise properly maintained geocaches from being hidden in "choice" locations. This is an effort to provide better maintenance and care for some of my other caches in Colorado as I prepare for a future in which visits to this region will become more sporadic.

Attributes Series


A series meant to highlight the 62 (as of 8/28/14) posivtive attributes offered by geocaching.com.

As defined by geocaching.com: "Attributes communicate what to expect at a cache location. Cache owners may identify attributes before submitting a cache listing for review. Identified attributes will appear on the right side of a cache listing page."

This series is intended to be a creative way of expressing one select attribute at a time. Because of the variety of attributes, these hides will be placed at a variety of locations. Difficulty and terrain ratings will vary for each hide. Please replace each cache back exactly as it was found. Good luck!

Available during winter - My Definition: A true "available during winter" geocache is well out of range of any snow cover. If you turn to The Weather Channel and see a forecast for a blinding blizzard with blowing, drifting, go-right-down-the-back-of-your-neck snow that will surely be piling up to the three foot mark within the hour, you can rest assured that you can go out and brave the elements and still be able to log a find on the "available during winter" geocache. When those road-hoggin' snow plows come out the next day and pile up snow 6 feet high on both sides of the road, you should still be able to find an "available during winter" hide. No matter how much snow there is on any given Colorado day, the "available during winter" cache has your back (especially if you've got a great cache streak going and all that you have left to find are dinky little film cans at the bottoms of fenceposts).
