This new series is to bring back the Lost Art of Benchmarking.

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.

This way, you can not only log a micro-cache but a benchmark as well. Its a two-for-one deal!!

This is a smaller cache about the size of a vitamin bottle. It will hold Geocoins or small TBs.

Easy parking on shoulder of road.
This is a nice and easy Benchmark to see.

This cache is at Benchmark AE5260.

Don't forget to log the Benchmark here! http://www.geocaching.com/mark/details.aspx?PID=ae5260

This cache needs attention by the CO. It appears on 2 January 2018, another cacher did a "throw down" of a new cache container (a nano) which was found and logged a few times. I revisited GZ once again this morning and there is no evidence of any nano near GZ and it appears the CO hasn't been active since May 2017. CO should visit and repair cache or archive it so it no longer shows up in searches.
