About This Item

This travel bug is a 1992 Mazda 323, although you probably couldn't tell that by the picture.

The instructions for this travel bug are many. If you are reading this before 9/15/05, then this is only a rough draft.

The key to the Apocalypse Cow! can be found in the cache itself attached to an instruction sheet. The actual Apocalypse Cow! should be parked in the most obvious space within walking distance from the cache.

Instruction sheet (rough draft):
This travel bug is the key to the Apocalypse Cow!! Remember that weird lookin' mazda painted like a cow that you saw when you parked? Well, this key starts that car. DO NOT TAKE THIS KEY UNLESS YOU CAN TAKE THE APOCALYPSE COW! WITH YOU! Before starting the Apocalypse Cow!, look inside the glove compartment. Here you will find something that i'm calling the Apocalypse Cow! Maintenance Log. Please take some time to peruse it a few times because the Apocalypse Cow! burns a little oil and might need you to add a quart. How's that radiator doing? Does it need some anti-freeze? Wiper fluid? Any gas in the tank? Some of this stuff is probably rattling around the back seat somewhere and some of it can be picked up at gas stations, so do what ya gotta do. Please make a note of any maintenance you accomplish in the the Apocalypse Cow! Maintenance Log. This will help others after you've parked it at the next cache.
CROSSING STATE LINES: If you happen to cross a state line in the Apocalypse Cow!, please be sure to stop at a convenience store and buy a touristy state decal to the bumper.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS:
This car has a manual transmission.
Always wear your seatbelt and follow local traffic laws.
Car may explode at any time.
Please have car insurance.

Discovered It 9/15/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache "Msportis Coinlihaus der 2." and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT 😉
