It seems that summer was just here! Afternoons out on the lake, relaxing at the beach, and that hot, sweltering humidity that was ever present. Lawnmowers were running - air conditioners were humming - but, what happened??
I could go into detail, but a brief overview is that the earth's tilted axis caused a lowering in the angle of the sun, resulting in colder temperatures, and as a result - frozen precipitation, or snow! It really is a miracle when you think just a small change of axis can alter the climate year after year, in such a drastic manner.
This specific cache's close proximity to the nearby community gardens will give you a look at the remains of what used to be fresh produce - or if you are looking in the spring... well, basically a mud pit - slowly thawing, with eager gardeners awaiting planting time.
If you are attempting the challenge: Depending on when you look for this cache, in the fall, or in the spring, you will need to be attentitive to the weather forecast - and make sure it will be in the range of 0 degrees celsius to minus 10 degrees celsius AT THE TIME you find the cache if you want to successfully complete the challenge.
**I have marked the area the mercury level will need to be at with a small black rectangle.
Good luck, and hey, dress warm and have a good time!
