Geocache Description:


This quick park and grab was inspired by a disaster preparedness / response index, which (while often used in serious circumstances) is a fun bit of trivia to learn about. The Index was named after the well known chain this cache is hidden near, and was coined by a former Fema administrator. It is based on the idea that they're always open, so 'if you get there and they're closed? That's really bad...'

 

The index has three levels, based on the extent of operations and service at the restaurant following a storm:

  • GREEN: full menu – Restaurant has power and damage is minimal or absent.
  • YELLOW: limited menu – Power is either absent or delivered by a generator, or food supplies are running low.
  • RED: the restaurant is closed – Indicates severe damage or severe flooding; Severe destruction to the restaurant.
