Geocache Description:


The northwest portion of Philadelphia is absolutely crammed with some stunning public parks.  Clifford Park, just adjacent to the larger Wissahickon is a great hidden gem, that includes a baseball field, trails, streams, old Victoria/Edwardian architecture and probably one of the best sledding hills in the city.


All that aside, this cache involves a different kind of field, a magnetic one.  I've wanted to make a cache that dealt with magnets for a while now as they're a low-tech way to add fun to a gadget.  The stars have aligned at last and after clearing out some old baby proofing items and acquiring a 3d printer I was struck with inspiration for a fun gadget cache for all ages.


You’ll need a fairly common tool of the trade to unlock the secret of this cache, the stronger the better.  I can’t be positive, or negative about the orientation of your tool, so one goes both ways (north and south) would be a safe bet.  The wrong way around and you’ll end up just locking it even tighter.  With your tool in hand you just need to pick a color and listen for the magic.  Red or blue will open things for you, no need for both.


Enjoy!
