Geocache Description:

A hide at one of the highest points on the pitt campus- you are going to get your exercise going "up" on this one, especially from the lower campus. Stealth needed, especially around 8-9am and 4-5pm.


There is to rectify one spot on the Pitt campus in need of a hide. Its a camoed 4inch Tablet bottle, accessable in the Towerview/OC parking lot. I used to walk up here every day from the lower campus for many years , and while it was great daily excercise, it wore you down in the winter!. However, the views up there are neat, and you can see not just of most of Pitt, but also stadiums, Pittsburgh and the Hill District. Not as high as the "Tower of Ignorance" (Cathedral of Learning) top floors. Cache can be accessed without paying for parking, but you will have to climb steps and probaably a hill.... This can be high muggle traffic area during "coming in" and "going home" time. Shouild be accessable at all times, but may be full of cars. There is small room for some trades, i have put a few items in to start the ball rolling. Be careful not to drop the Cache, its a long way....
