Geocache Description:


THE SLAGA TWELVE DAYS OF CACHEMAS ARE BACK!!!

The Cache Sled has crash landed in the dark and The Four Calling Birds are calling for help!!!!

Here’s how it works: For 12 consecutive days beginning December 12th (Day 1), a new cache will be published and every day afterwards until December 23rd. If you are able to First to Find, FTF, one of these daily caches, an FTF Cachemas Ornament will be in the container for you to keep. Once again, L Frank has designed a unique ornament that can be converted to a cache container for a future hide; or, you may keep it, your choice. PLEASE, if you get an FTF on one of the 12 days, do not go for another one until day 13, let someone else have the fun.

Again, there will be a Bonus Cache on the 13th day, December 24th. EVERYONE is eligible to find the bonus whether or not you have FTFed a Cachemas hide. This cache can only be found by using all the codes written on the inside of the container lid of each daily cache. Keep these codes and use them to solve the location of the Bonus cache which will publish on the final day, December 24th. The Bonus solution will be included in the final day Cache description and I am promised, it is not a difficult solution.

THE BONUS CACHE CONTAINS TWO LARGE PREMIUM GEOCOINS AS WELL AS AN AWESOME ORNAMENT!!

Have fun and remember to thank Brandt Teske, aka 87preludea20a3, in your log. He brought this great series to St. Louis.


This is a Naughty or Nice Night Cache!!

YOUR decision shall determine if you have been naughty or nice !!

Bring a strong, bright flashlight!!!

To find the cache, first get to the starting coordinates.

Once you arrive at the starting coordinates, you will find you are at a fork in the trail. Look around with your flashlight. You will see two reflectors; one leading down the left trail, one leading down the right.

Make your decision wisely. One trail of reflectors will lead to the Day 4 Cachemas cache. The other.... well... not so much... If you choose the Naughty trail, you will have to return to the fork in the trail to begin down the Nice trail. Needless to say, this will likely put you well behind anyone who took the Nice trail.

For EITHER TRAIL, once you have decided which trail to follow, go to the reflector and look around for the next one. As you near the next reflector, search the area for the next one. And so on…

Follow the reflector trail until you spot TWO reflectors on the same tree. Turn around & look for THREE reflectors on the same tree. Search the area of the three reflectors for the cache. Or.... maybe not...

Watch for fallen trees, sticks & vines!

This area is closed between 10 PM and 6 AM.

GOOD LUCK!!!
