Archimedes Was A Principled Man

Easy, easy find - that's not the point...

So you've found the cache location - now how do you retrieve it from its hiding spot?


Archimedes

This cache has a 5* difficulty rating, but it's an easy walk with a small amount of bushwhacking. The rating is to tell you that you need to take something special with you. It's something everybody has and is easy to obtain - many geocachers carry it with them as a matter of course - in fact sometimes we have too much of it...

If the title of the cache doesn't help you there is another clue at N30 12.743' W097 51.779'

Note that the outer container does NOT need to be removed or even moved and please replace everything exactly as you found it! In particular note that the order of assembly is very important.

 

Oh - and there's another little twist too, but you'll work it out. 

Hope you enjoy the cache!
