Another in the "Lost Art of Benchmarking" series
I finally found a great use for Micro caches. This series will be
placed around already discovered benchmarks for you to discover
(and log) as well.

I'm not sure if I can still call this the "Lost Art" due to the entusiastic efforts and support of Mondou2 and -TwoCs-

These coordinates take you to Benchmark AA8175.

The benchmark is in the middle of the street, but the cache is only 5 or 6 feet away.

This is the first-draft of a homemade (hopefully) "Muggle-Proof" cache. My next one of this type will definately look more "natural" as I have come up with some ideas on how to improve this one.

The difficulty is based entirely on the camo.

Don't forget to log the benchmark here!




Congrats to memnosine for FTF!!

Log is definitely missing so I put a new nano with log there at bottom of obvious landmark. CO may want to visit to restore log to where he originally had it.
