Geocache Description:


PAC-MAN Rock Cache

The reference point for this cache is a rock that bears a striking resemblance to an icon of my 80’s youth: PAC-MAN. Photo included.

PAC-MAN is in hot pursuit of the cache. PAC-MAN cannot go through walls.

The cache is not in PAC-MAN’s mouth.

The cache bears no resemblance to Blinky, Pinky, Inky or Clyde. 

You can not locate this cache by listening for a wakka wakka sound.

Putting a bow and lipstick on this rock will turn PAC-MAN into Ms. PAC-MAN but that won’t help you find this cache. 

The cache is hidden above the ground but below your knees.

Scrounge for a grape-sized clog of dirt.

Why am I being so uncharacteristically generous with helpful information?

Because the cache is an Crusty™ Nano…like super-crusty and I have hidden it well.

DNF = GAME OVER

WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA!!!

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!
