Mama Cache As Cache Can Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Kosh Naranek: As this cache has been in need of maintenance for a period well in excess of the "few weeks" contemplated by the guidelines, and there's been no further action on repairing this cache, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache in the [i]immediate future,[/i] just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it."

Geocache Description:

Access this cache from a paved bike path. Parking is available at a nearby shopping center. Note: 7/23/05 We added a hint because the purpose of this cache is to be found by seekers.
Addendum 8/19/05: The cache has been moved (coords updated) from its original location and provided some additional camo for the interim while we continue to brainstorm a solution that will make this cache less muggle-prone.

The intent of this cache is to provide a variety of cache containers and tools to be used to establish other geocaches. As the Mother of other caches, it would be nice if the children could drop a note home to let Mama Cache know where they have set up house. After all the kids leave home, Mama wants to run a boarding home for weary travelers.

Cache WAS a waterproof camouflaged container big enough to hold the following items:

· ~40 micro containers each approximating the size of a classic Zippo lighter or floss container. These can be clipped onto a belt or hung from a button, a branch, or what have you. Originally designed to hold and carry earplugs on a lanyard.
· 1 large clear plastic Jelly Belly bean jar.
· 4 memo books for use as logs (plus one for the cache log!).
· 1 heart-shaped Altoids container.
· 1 regular size Altoid container.
· 1 mini mint container.
· 2 round Altoid containers.
· 1 4-inch X 1-inch plastic screw top tube with aluminum cap.
· Several magnet strips.
· 6 Pencils
· Ten stencils “GEOCACHE” (½-inch letter).
· Two extreme micro toothpick containers.
· 10 English/Spanish stash notes.
· First To Find prize of a USB mini-digital camera/web cam

8/19/05 UPDATE: Cache container is now a large cookie can (not waterproof) that is stuffed to the brim.
