Geocache Description:


DO NOT ATTEMPT WHILE THE RIVER IS HIGH. ALSO, IF YOU SUFFER FROM AUTODYSOMOPHOBIA, THIS CACHE IS DEFINITELY NOT FOR YOU.




Let me just start off by saying that this does not necessarily sound fun from the description on the page, but it was created to be fun and hopefully it will be a fun and memorable experience for all who attempt it. It was certainly an adventure placing it.


Mostly due to cache density issues, you will not find a stage at the published coordinates so don't waste your time. It is simply the beginning of your journey. Don't try to stand in the middle of the road either. Go underneath the bridge by the bank of the river, head to the published coordinates, and you should know what to do.


A note on the title of this cache: Its name basically just means 'a fear of bad smells'. Some of you are probably assuming, based on this and the nature of the listing that you will have to go through raw sewage in order to get to the cache. This is false. I didn't even get my feet wet while placing the cache and you don't have to either. However, this tunnel was made a while ago, when a combination of poor engineering,and a lack of restrictions, led to sanitary sewers being connected to storm-drains. Which gives this listing its vile smell.


A note on the terrain rating: Some would call this a 3.5. Some might even call this a 3. But I just couldn't do it. You don't have to crawl. You don't have to wade, you don't even have to crouch to enter this tunnel. But to me, this is a 4 terrain.
