Geocache Description:

You are looking for small sized cache. It is not at the above coordinates. (Though, if it were, it would be much easier to spot than Shelter III is.) If you can't find Shelter III, give this one a try. It can be your backup plan.


Coordinates for the cache are: DJFFAHIAIGADFJA

There are some things that no cacher should ever be without. Some of us, however, take longer to learn these lessons than others.


Imagine a cacher who, when out caching with his family, locks his keys in the car. He may try to tell you that it was one of his kids who did it, and that may be who actually shut the door. But would you leave your keys in the car while trying to grab a cache?

Imagine a cacher locking his keys in the car with the engine running, as chronicled in the cache, 90 Minutes of Gas Again, one may try to place blame elsewhere.

Finally, can you imagine a cacher, while on a wild goose chase at Shelter III, leaving his keys in the ignition and locking the door? If that happened to you and you were on a solo search, you might have to sheepishly call home and ask for help.
Plus, there wouldn't be anyone else to pin the blame on. (Though I’m sure some guilty cachers might twist their version of the story to make it someone else’s fault.

Isn't there a common caching container that would have helped 4damFam in each of these three situations?
