Geocache Description:


Nano Cache Debut

Heath Hen Cache #2

So I brought this nano cache on Geocaching.com. Its a 1/2 x 1/2 in. metal cylinder. See photo.

I glued bark and dirt to it and hid it in a swamp. The cache is secured with fishing line to something.

[Insert groans of local geocachers here]

Calm down folks, its not as bad as you think.

It's not hidden deep in the swamp, I barely got my boots wet. I've also provided a reference photo taken at the hide location to help orient you.

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!
