Let me say that again – PLEASE READ THE CACHE PAGE BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS GEOCACHE!
Geocaching can sometimes be a solitary activity, but I usually prefer caching with someone or even a group. It can be close friends, family, or another cacher we just met on the trail, but having more than one set of eyes can often make the difference between a smiley and a DNF ! 😊 or 😢
This is a three stage multi-cache, and believe me when I say, that has nothing to do with the title. You will need to bring a geo-group of at least three or at least have three smart devices with you to attempt this cache.
The first and second stages are GeoMobs. What's that, you ask? "A GeoMob allows you to create a physical geocache that requires a mob size of your choosing to collect themselves at a location of your choosing before the coordinates - or other message - is revealed. Everybody in the mob will need a reasonably modern smart phone in order to participate." To search for this cache, at least three Geocachers must be within 8 meters or 26 feet of the posted coordinates and all navigate to the Geo Mob website. When you do that, the next set of coordinates or instructions will appear on your browser screens. Then use your smart phone/app or GPS to navigate to the final location and the container holding the physical log for you to ink. (There is a note on the GeoMob webpage warning of problems with the Android Chrome browser, but that is an old note. I have verified it is working.) You can visit the link below anytime to “Verify your phone or smart device is compatible”. There is no need to install software or provide any personal details to use the GeoMob site. Using this site is free.

In the "Which mob are you attending?" field, enter 4024 to start.
You will be given the next Mob ID after completing the first stage.
To simplify:
- Go to posted coordinates with your Geo-group.
- Open the GeoMob webpage and enter the Mob ID 4024
- Navigate to within 26 feet of target coordinates.
- Wait briefly for GeoMob to reveal the next stage.
- Repeat #’s 2,3&4 with information you obtained from stage 1
- Navigate to final and ink the log.
- SMILE! 😄
