Geocache Description:


When geocaching is "not so nice"!

This geocache is focused on the "not so nice" aspects of geocaching! I originally wanted to make it a "challenge" geocache, which would require that you have 3 unpleasant geocaching experiences to log the cache. But alas, Geocaching has changed and it's no longer possible to make such creative "challenge" caches.

So instead of a challenge cache, this will be more of a "story" geocache. I'm hoping geocachers who find this cache will share a story of an unpleasant experience associated with geocaching. Somehow, geocachers have a great knack for making funny stories out of unpleasant experiences.

What are some of the unpleasant parts of geocaching? Things like.....getting poison oak. Getting bitten by a tick. Sliding in the mud. Dealing with an overly inquisitive and disapproving muggle. Having a passer by ask you "what is wrong? Are you okay?" Confrontations from the police! Coming up with numerous DNF's in a row, or for the same geocache! Getting "mysteried out" when you try to hide a geocache. Hiking miles to find a geocache...and it's missing when you get there. You have these or other stories....we want to hear them!
