This is a 2 stage multi. You will need a special tool to open (perhaps a flathead screwdriver) and close (hammer) this cache. Please make sure to close it all the way without breaking and re-hide well :) Bring your own pen.

At the time of this posting most of the businesses at this location are still closed. But once life resumes as normal and shops open back up, I urge you to only attempt this cache after stores are closed (in an attempt to avoid being seen by muggles and looking suspicious).

This geocache is dedicated to all the little artists of the world who bombard their parents with their masterpieces... and to one special artist, P413. I have the hardest time throwing these drawings away because each one is special, but if I kept them all I wouldn't be able to walk through my house! Over the years we have attended many an art exhibit featuring P413's artwork and our hearts have always beamed with pride. She puts so much time and effort into her pieces, it has been a joy to watch them get selected. My little artist is just starting to find her wings. I can't wait to see the adventures that are to come. You will soar with the eagles!

When you head to stage 1, take time to appreciate the amazing murals on the walls nearby, this is the reason for the location of this cache. There is a great place for a photo op if you can find your wings!

Big thank you to KB+Witz for recalculating their puzzle to make room for this cache! Your kindness is so appreciated!

Congratulations to WitzAbout for the FTF!!

I missed stage 1 the first time, relying too much on preconceived notions! After a nice nudge from the CO, went back and found it. Duh! One of those days! The final is in great shape, and I had just the tool on my key chain to help. Thanks for placing this one!

Another fun multi - I’m working on a challenge and I needed a few more so these have been great. When I was reading the logs I wasn’t how 2 cachers thought they were first. Then I got there and saw. There was a small journal for swag that the 2TF signed. Have included a pic of the actual logbook for future finders. Thanks CoSnowBunny for another fun cache. Favorite point awarded for your creativity.

Thought I was first but I guess I signed the wrong book!
Very creative stage 1!
Needed a TOTT for stage 2 which I had with me.
Signed log at 2:45pm
Thanks for the multi!

Very nice 2 stage multi! Very creative and extra artistic!

We had an appointment downtown, and I noticed that this cache had been published. I told KB about it on the way home, as we were approaching the main street that we would have to turn to get here. She excitedly said yes, let's look. I double checked, and nobody logged it yet. We got to the first spot, and my smart phone had is wandering a bit. I signed checked Google satellite view, and that was spot on. Took a second look, yes! Love it! I've never seen a clue quite like it before, very fun! Punch in, not too far.

I walked to the second spot while KB drove closer. After about 200 steps, we looked. Which way? I took the challenge and went for it while KB kept an eye out. Yes, counting down, I must be getting close. Ah ha! There it is! Nice! Very well decorated! Needed a tool to open the container, luckily, had my trusty Swiss army pocket tool with me.

Opened up. FTF rock was still there and a blank log. First to find at 12:18pm. Signed the log at the top, KB+Witz.

Thanks so much for s great adventure and noting our assist on the page.

I'd say this would be a 3 terrain. Suggest noting a 2 stage, and that a tool is required to open on the description.

Wonderful cache! Well done! Happy art, happy hearts. I look forward to seeing more from you. Going to add a favorite.
