Geocache Description:


🚨**No Need for any of your own tools! Even if you think there is. The hint is sufficient for S1. I cannot stress this enough. 🚨

Difficulty rating is because of S1 if no personal TOTTs are used.

This 2 stage multi brings you to a small neighborhood park that is a hidden gem. It is even more out of the way than Bruin but has a basketball court, paths, playground, and t-ball field. 

S1 is a field puzzle, and will give you coords for the Final.

For S1, do not take it down, cut the zipties, or do anything of that sort. Twist the top. Some of you who have found many of my hides might know what type of container S1 is. But that by no means means you will know how to solve it since you haven't seen this type of field puzzle before in any of my caches, but you may have experienced it before in another cache. Once you unscrew the top you will see a TOTT that should give you a good idea on how to solve. You do not need to bring any of your own TOTT's. That includes water. When replacing lid, screw until the two pieces of camo tape align so that it is not screwed on too tightly for the next finder.

Please do not read the hint for S1 until you have tried everything you've thought of that is within the guidelines.


Final: This is not your normal screwtop final in more sense than one. In the first sense, it is a camoed waterbottle. There is a reason it is a waterbottle. Which leads me to the second reason, which is that there is an added twist on how to retrieve the final. This cache has been placed with permission from the Town of Herndon.

Things to Note: 

  • Bring long pants and high socks! I can't stress this enough. Unfourtunately the Final is a bit of a poison Ivy fest, but, as you will see when you find it, that spot was the only spot on the park that I could place the Final without a high risk of it being muggled, or you being seen when retrieving it.
  • Bring your kids
  • Bring Bugspray in the warmer months
  • Please replace everything exactly as found or better
  • Not much stelath should be required, but just be aware when finding the stages so neither of these containers get muggled.
  • This is in a park managed by the Town of Herndon and there is no night caching allowed.

Congratulations to Jess and Wipps for the FTF!

Happy Caching!
