2016 Leap Year cache #1 – Bulwell St. John’s
While the calendar assumes the Earth revolves around the sun every 365 days, it actually takes the Earth a bit longer - 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds. If the calendar were not adjusted for the extra six hours by adding an extra day approximately every four years, the calendar would slowly shift and the seasons would no longer be aligned with the traditional months.
Without Leap Days, the calendar would be off by 24 days within 100 years. For geocachers however, we just get an extra days caching!
Fun leap day fact - Workers who have fixed annual or monthly wages essentially work for free on Feb. 29 because added wages are not usually calculated to account for the additional day!
The cache container you are looking for is a micro, therefore you will need to bring your own pen, we also advise bringing tweezers that may be useful in extracting the logs.
Also, due to the location of the hide, being adjacent to both a family centre and a busy bus stop, we would advise using stealth tactics as there is a high potential of being muggled when searching for the caches and signing the logs.
We hope you enjoy searching for this cache and request that the cache is left as found.
We hope you enjoy the cache
&
Happy Caching!
