Crystal Skull Island
Pacy Cache #2
In case you missed it: TERRAIN RATING 3.5
This cache is in a swamp. Not just marshy ground but an actual swamp with tiny islands of land surrounded by mud and water. You will also have to contend with lots of hindering vegetation including thorny shrubs and poison ivy. The cache is not far from the trail but I found navigating to and from it quite vexing. I have included a photo to give you an impression of the terrain challenge level.
This is the Crystal Skull (see photo). The island where you will find the cache has two trees on it.
Please take note of the position of the cache container before retrieving it and be sure to return the container to it's original hiding location in order to maintain the intended level of concealment. Also, I would appreciate feedback on the condition of my containers. Each one is an experiment to make them more durable, watertight and inconspicuous. Thank you!
