The first stage is a Not-So-Micro, which contains coordinates to the second cache. It is a film canister - inside of a beef jerkey bottle (2"x5"); that is very well hidden, and cannot be found without some active searching (Please leave the coordinates in there - there is only one copy).

The second stage is a Not-So-Micro, which contains coordinates to the final cache. It is a BROWN Vitamin "C" Bottle (3"x5"); that is very well hidden, and cannot be found without some active searching (Please leave the coordinates in there - there is only one copy). If you find any old structures on your journey to look for this stage - please leave it as you found it (Do Not Move Anything).. We want everything to be the same for when others come looking.

The final stage is a regular cache (AMMO BOX) that will be found in the park.
