Preliminaries:
There is no cache hidden at the posted coordinates, but you will need to start there.
There is no need to enter any commercial premises for any part of this cache!
Please use the roadside footpaths where possible, and take care in crossing any roads.
Makku Mob Caches are popping up all over the place. We place them where we have met up with fellow geocaching friends, and encourage others to do likewise: meet up with a few friends and have some fun caching.
So, a Mob Cache is a Social Cache. In order to find the location of this cache, you will need to bring along some of your friends! The more friends you have, the easier it is to find the cache.
For this cache, you need a minimum of THREE cachers to meet at the posted coordinates with their smartphones.
Technical details:
This style of cache is called a geomob. It is popular at events, where a mob of 6, 10 or even more cachers might be required before a cache is unlocked. As this isn’t part of any event, I’ve reduced the size of the mob to just 3 people to give you a taste of the geomob experience. Each cacher present will need an internet-supported smart phone.
[The original mob server was discontinued at the start of 2024; however, the experience has been recreated by talk2azs (with assistance from Mister Doctor) to run on a new server.]
Once at the listed coordinates, each of you should tap on the following link on your separate devices.
So it's time to get this little "theatrical production" under way. To read the script, go to the the Flash Mob URL:
CLICK THIS LINK NOW and a new window will open. Continue to refresh this window until you are close enough and connected to the mob.
This is a One Act Play (meaning, a Single-Stage Mob Cache). You will take a short drive to the 'theatre" for the "final production".
You will receive the full script only when at least THREE fellow Actors (Geocachers) are connected at the same time.
It would be a great idea if someone in your cast IMMEDIATELY takes a screen snapshot to minimise the risk of loosing the screen. OR, you could just write down the directions or coordinates of the "theatre".
When you reach the "theatre", please note any parking restrictions when you arrive.
NOTE:
👓 If you get a Geolocation Permission error, ensure your browser‘s settings allow geolocation.
👓 Refreshing the window should also clear any GPS reading errors.
👓 Be patient - the mob refresh rate is a bit slow, so even though you might be within the mob radius you may have to wait there for a little bit until your presence is detected!
The Cache:
Then you could take a pleasant WALK from the starting coordinates to the cache - it is a short distance away. Or you could elect to drive, but please park sensibly. The HINT may contain further information.
Good Luck!
