This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!
The Rock That Rolls is a Former Traveling Cache Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.
If you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!
If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.
My Current Goal:
This description is mostly copied from the old page from when this was an allowed cache. Geocaching.com changed their rules and 'ungrandfathered' The Rock as a roving cache. It was a very rare roving cache that had Geocaching.com's permission. They changed their minds after 15 years.
=====================================================
This was Austin's only roving cache. The person who finds it gets to take it and place it somewhere else in Austin.
There are three rules you need to follow when going after this cache:
- When you find it, you must take it.
-
You must place it again the same day that you find it. Please keep it in the Austin area. Defined by me as 20miles in any direction from the Capitol Dome at N30 16.479 W97 44.4348.
- You must log on to geocaching.com as soon as possible to report your find and give updated coordinates of its new position. If you don't do this nobody else will be able to find it.
Be creative when placing it. I'd like to see lots of creative 'urban' placements. It should fit in almost anywhere with a bit of imagination. Also, take photos of your placement if you can.
The cache is camoflaged and should fit in almost anywhere in the Austin area.
