UPDATE: June 29, 2024
The hungry tree swallowed the cache, AGAIN! So this NEW placement is in a tree that's no longer hungry! This cache is ready for you to find just 2 steps off the pavement and no bushwhacking required!🌳🌳🌳
The treeUPDATE on 6/18/2024:
The cache has been replaced and is ready to find!
Nature got the best of the original cache but Axel says this new hide is FUN! The difficulty level is 2.5 and no poison ivy was spotted at GZ. 🐾🐾
UPDATE on 5/17/2024:
Nature wanted in on this geocaching game and has made this a Level 5 difficulty with no intervention by Axel or his human!!
A cacher picked up the camouflage item housing this cache and heard the cache--a pill bottle--fall INTO the tree!!!
Anyone with a fishing pile or grabbing tool is welcome to retrieve this cache!! Find the camouflage item, then use a tool to ease the cache out of the trunk that swallowed it! The FTF, STF and TTF and any new cachers are most welcome to try! If there's no progress in 6 months, I'll replace the log. This contest is a more fun approach. Let's let nature play!
A special prize will be delivered to coordinates posted for the successful cacher that beats nature at its game!
Good luck!!! 🌳🎣🌳
