In Search of ... Vile Vortex Letterbox Hybrid

This cache has been archived.

nikcap: I can only guess where this one ended up maybe in Hamakulia, or The Megalithic Ruins near Timbuktu, or quit possibly Mohenjo Daro in Mesopotamia. Who know, feel free to continue looking for this one, you never know when it will appear again.

My hopes for this cache was to place a large size cache that could hold lots of goodies and be easily accessible. But I suspect this was a little too easily accessible to muggle travelers.

Geocache Description:

You're looking for a larger than normal container. This is a Letter-Box Hybrid cache, the coordinates will get you within 50 ft. Follow the clues to find the container.

Clues: After finding ghost, head through the valley. As you head up other other side, you'll see a box with maps. They are not good for where we are going. Continue South-West, pass the master that has been sawed off, turn left and you'll see another ancient wreck. Search there for your treasure.

The Vile Vortices are twelve vertex points on Earth that have been described as “The Twelve Devil’s Graveyards Around the World”. The best-known Vile Vortices are the Bermuda Triangle, the Dragon Triangle (Devil's Sea), the South Atlantic Anomaly and Easter Island. These locations are equidistant from each other, equally divided between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer, and represent areas where instances of magnetic anomalies and other unexplained phenomena occure.

Vile_Vortices_Map

Like a cursed treasure map, the vortices mark areas where planes, ships, and people seem to vanish without a trace. Many speculate that these areas form an intelligent geometric pattern into which the Earth and its energies are organized. At these locations magnetic force fields are concentrated, tradewinds shift or disappear completely, and storms form unexpectantly. 

Skeptically, there is nother mysterious about these locations.  The Bermuda Triangle is a huges area, It is heavily flown and cruised commercial route for many passenger liners. Statistically,  the number of ships and planes that have gone missing in the triangle area, was not disproportionate compared to other parts of the world. In fact, many of the ships and planes that disappeared mysteriously in the Bermuda Triangle were not in the Bermuda Triangle at all.

However, there are hundreds of accounts of vortexes and portals opening up in random location across the Earth, is it possible there's mysterious places can form anywhere?  Are they connected to a nearby Vile Vortex?  Whatever you do, watch your step in the woods. While keeping an eye out for lions and tiger and bears (oh my), the last thing you probably want to do is end up Lost on a mysterious and in an unknown land with no apparent way home.
