Geocache Description:

The Twisted Event is easy, the Twisted Cache isn't. See if you and your closest, most trusted family and friends can untwist the clues and coords to Twisted Cistern (GCF6C7). Afterwards, we all get together for a twisted good time, food, fun, and celebration! Bring your bestest homemade BBQ Sauce, and we'll have a BBQ cook off!

The Poem, with apologies to Ray Bradbury...

Cistern water turns to dark
Where ere it's presence leaves it's mark
And boiling currents pound like drums
When something twisted this way comes...

A presence dark invades the fair
And gives the ‘cachers ample scare
Chaos rains and panic fills the air
When something twisted this way comes...

Garmin’s mark it's fearsome flight,
And Magellans creak with fright.
The cachers turns to ashen crumb,
When something twisted this way comes...

Caches bloom as black as night
Removing signal from your sight
Nightmarish vines block your way
Thorns reach out to catch their prey

And by the pricking of your thumbs
Realize that their poison numbs
From frightful cache, rank odors seep
Bats & beasties fly & creep

'Cross this evil land, ‘cachers go
Despite the darkness, headlamps glow
All will rot & decompose
For something twisted this way grows...




The Event coords are for a park in Onekama, with a pavillion, grills, and a lil 'cacher play area. Alas, our four footed cachers are not allowed in here, but there's plenty of places to walk them nearby.

We should all meet up at the coords listed, and then go attempt to find the most twisted cache of all. Afterwards, we will have a good old fashioned twisted bbq, and enjoy a bit of socializing! Bring your best, top secret, homemade BBQ sauce, and a prize of inestimable worth will be yours!

Please check back here often as details become more available.
