A geocache tribute to the greatest geek who ever lived, Nikola Tesla.


Nikola Tesla (1856 - 1943) was a Serbian American inventor, electrical engineer, mechnical engineer and futurist best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricy supply system.  It is truly because of Nikola Tesla why we have electricty in our homes and businesses.  Nikola Tesla obtained over 300 patents in over 25 countries around the world.  Basically Nikola Tesla was the greatest geek who ever lived.

This should be a fairly easy find. The geocache is in plain sight and does not require anything to be opened or turned. No tools (other than your geo senses are required to find this cache).

Parking is not allowed on the street. Short-term parking is available nearby. This area (at times) may have muggles walking by. But it should be relatively easy to maintain stealth conditions. This area is mostly empty on weekends

The cache contains only a logbook. Please bring your own pen. Thanks for seeking out my geocache. Have fun!

Visiting Denver from Rawlins Wyoming. Had to come back to this one, the first time we were here the sprinkler was going. Log was wet, but still able to sign. TFTC!

Staying in the area, couldn't pass up an easy one so close to the hotel. Spotted it before my son.

This one took me about a minute or two but eventually made the find. Have seen ones like this in Connecticut. Thanks for the fun and creative hide. Working close by and staying at the Marriott so in town for a few days and of course had to get a few geocaches. Thanks for the fun and be fresh new log sheet.

Maybe I am rusty? I had to wait out a sprinkler until it was done with it's cycle. Then search and search. Nada :(
