Fear This: Kenophobia Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Team Noltex: I would have liked to have kept this cache going, but there was too much maintenance and life has been too busy to keep up with it. When it gets broken just days after fixing it, it's probably time to give up.

Geocache Description:

Kenophobia, a fear of voids or dark spaces. Time to face your fear!

This cache is another in our Fear This: Phobia series of caches. Kenophobia, like all phobias, is the irrational and extreme fear of something, in this case voids or empty spaces. As I've talked to other cachers, one fear is mentioned more than any other when it comes to geocaching - sticking your hand into a hole you can't see into. What creature might be hiding in that hollow log you reach into, ready to attack in a maniacal, rabies infested craze? Is that hole in those rocks you stick your arm into a snake den of writhing vipers? This cache will bring you face to face with your fear. If you want the cache, you're going to have to stick your arm in. And grab - what? You can try to look first, but you won't be able to. Have you had your shots?

The cache is hidden in Ward's Lake Park, with parking available from the entrance on 84th Street. The park is open during daylight hours only. Please be gentle in pulling the container out.

The difficulty of this cache is only a five if you are kenophobic. If you're one of the few who aren't, it's more like 1.5 stars.
