Welcome to the Scorpion Geoart!
After enjoying the hard work of other geoart cache hiders, I decided to give back with my own artwork. These aren't meant to be terribly hard -- most caches are pill bottles, soda tubes, bison tubes or Berty tubes. I tried to place these where there was room to pull off the road, but these are generally lightly-traveled roads anyway, so take your time and enjoy the scenery!
This is a Mystery cache.
