Geocache Description:


Last night when I was cleaning out my room, I moved my bookcase and found the usual stuff behind it, chocolate wrappers, random geocaching stuf and of course, a LOT of dust. But among the mess I found a book. It was small and leather bound with one word in red on the front, 

UNDERCOVER

There was no author.

I picked up the book and examined it, it looked very old and like it was about to fall apart. I walked across the room and plopped it on my desk then carefully opened the book, being careful not to rip any of the fragile brown paper. 

This was what I found:

January 23rd 1977,

I am stuck in this location and I can't get out, even if I tried to make a dash out to a new place I would probably be spotted and quickly caught. I can't let that happen, my life is too important. I need to find the treasure that I hid all those years ago, but I'm currently the most wanted criminal in the world. I am writing this diary to document my journey, and if I don't make it, I am hoping that someone can follow my footsteps.

I know that I hid the treasure in a secret place that the world won't find despite it being right under their nose. Luckily it isn't hiding in plain sight as that would be too risky. I knew I would forget where I put the treasure so I wrote its location and hid the information in a nearby spot to where I am, but after thirty years I can't remember where. Luckily I anticipated this and wrote down the info to find that spot somewhere where I am hiding right now. Unfortunately, despite my greatest efforts I can't find it. It seems to be just out of sight.

I hope that I can capture a flashback of the past, otherwise I may never complete my mission that I swore to complete. If anyone from the future is reading this and I have not written more, I fear I may not have been successful in my quest.


I flicked to the next page to see how the story ended, but I couldn't find any writing on the next page, or the next. I flicked through the whole book only to find nothing, not a single word after that page. All I could find was this picture on the last page...

I hope I can retrace their steps...


Know you know how to find the treasure, time for a warning. 

THIS CACHE CAN BE DANGEROUS!

(especially GZ)

It is up to you to decide how much of a risk it is and whether you can do it. There is no shame in saying "This cache isn't for me" or "I'm not well equipped enough"! I hold no responsibilty if you ignore this and end up getting injured!

Could I do it? Yes, but that doesn't mean that everyone can or should. 

Please employ max stealth at each waypoint and be ESPECIALLY careful at GZ (you will understand when you get there)! Failure to do so could result in serious injuries! I almost couldn't do the move to get to GZ, it requires a lot of balance (depending on what your attack plan is), so bringing somebody else to look out for you is a wise idea!

This cache is not for everyone and you may need to come back better equiped. 

After all of those warnings, have fun!

Thanks to Loci612 for the inspiration! :D 

And congrats to Loci612, DARKSIDEDAN and Sebass19 for FTF!
