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 AE7664.

This is a small cache.
I placed a small here as opposed to the micro as I had a very special trackable to drop.
Cache is big enough for (and stocked with) some swag or smaller trackables/coins.

The difficulty is raised a bit because of the camo and
the need for EXTREME stealth as this is a busy intersection.

The nearest available parking is about a half block west on Hampden on the North side of the street.

Don't forget to log the benchmark here!


Congrats to jeeperz1&2 for FTF!!

I’ve been wanting to search for this one for some time. Thanks for the fun hide, and for introducing me to benchmarking.

Grabbing some caches before they are entombed by the sweet white death of winter. Tftc!

It's nice to finally find this cache. We tried one other time and couldn't get close because there was worker nearby. No issues today.

After enjoying some pizza and a beer at Paxti's across the street, fearthefish and heh324 joined in finding this cache. I have tried to stop before but I had my truck and trailer and couldn't find a place to park for a few minutes to make the find. We made sure to change that today and grab this two-fer.

Found The Lost Art of Benchmarking (Denver Area #23) on April 20, 2017 using Cachly for iOS.

Thank you, OrionStarr* for placing a fun cache for all of us to enjoy. I look forward to finding more of your caches.
