Geocache Description:

As time passes technology advances and renders many things obsolete. Things that had great value for many years suddenly have no use. Consider the telephone some of you still have in your homes. When it was invented in the mid 1870's it was considered nothing short of miraculous. The entire country got behind developing the infrastructure to get a telephone in every home. Enter the cell phone. I just had my home phone disconnected. You see where I'm going here?


Technology and especially the internet are rapidly advancing and gradually many things will go the way of the home telephone. Can you think of some things that are destined to be replaced? Well, I have a few ideas.

 

This cache is designed to take you to a couple of places that may be no more in the years to come. Nobody knows for sure but see what you think. Your first stop brings you to the local newspaper. Newspapers have been around since the early 17th century and were made possible in the early days by astonishing techonlogy. Today's technology may just be the death of them.

 

The cache is at the second stop. Here is another place that could suffer from ever advancing technology. Maybe if  we keep placing caches at these locations it will help prolong their existence. The coordinates will get you close to the cache and from there you will need your GeoSense. Everything you know about Geocaching should assist you in your quest to find the cache. One thing you should know.......This is a containerless Multi-Cache. There is no container at the first stop, only coordinates leading you to the final. Likewise, there is no container at the final, only a log book.

 

This cache is not available 24/7. You must decrypt the hint if you want to make the find on your first attempt.
