Ground Zero - NOT Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Bob Rich: Time to archive this one. There are many other "rattlesnake" themed caches out there, but no need for real live-action and the possibility of getting hurt.

Geocache Description:

A short drive from Green River, Utah, this is one of several activities (not including Geocaching) that has made this town endure. A high clearance 2WD dirt road (slipery when wet) goes to within 50' of the cache.

Most of the time, geocachers are seeking "ground zero." But in this case, the real "ground zero" was located about 500 miles south in a New Mexico area called White Sands. You wouldn't want to be at that real "ground zero."

But you can be reassured that this cache is located at the above coordinates. It's above eye level but below ground. Sound confusing? You really have to be there to understand. A flashlight might be helpful.

The decon container originally contained geocoins: Alaska, Maryland, New York City, New Jersey, South Africa, Ohio, and (would you believe?) Bikini Bottom Feeders.

Head southward from the intersection at N38:58.379 W110:07.764.
