Geocache Description:

This cache has been reborn since it's days as an ODS Cache.

Good luck with the revised version and enjoy!

Cache History Only. Just a little background on this cache.

I attended Goewoodstock 4 over Memorial Day Weekend 2004, in Dallas TX. While there, I joined in on the One Degree of Separation Event Cache, which you can view at GCTVHQ. At this event 100’s of containers full of seedpods were distributed. This cache is one of the containers distributed at the event. The new container for the rivised cache is an ammo can.

This cache is hidden as part of the One Degree of Separation Geocaching Project. This is a seed cache, meaning you are meant to take one of the ready made micro caches inside of it and hide it yourself. No trading is required. Just come take a seed pod and hide it using the proper title format and utilizing the seed cache template that you will find at the project website or at the bottom of this page. There is no obligation to participate. Just sign the log if that's all you wish to do.

This project was launched to unite the entire geocaching continuum together at one point using the "Small World Theory" as it pertains to geocaching. If even half of the nearly 13,000 caches originally released on 5/26/2006 get placed as a geocache, no geocacher in the entire world (with even 1 find) should be able to go much beyond 3 degrees of separation from every other geocacher in the world, but the REAL object of this project is to bring that number down to 1 degree for as many geocachers as possible.

One Degree of Separation is a project that has been taking shape and GROWING for nearly 3 years. It's a variation of the "Small World" concept that was proposed in the early 20th century. Many people are familiar with the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" game, but few know just how far back the idea goes.

For more information on this project and the Small World Theory go to: One Degree Separation Web Site (visit link)
