Oh Jeez! Not an Evil Cache!!

 

Sometimes Cachers go the extra mile to camoflage containers in such a way that they are nearly indistinguishable from their surroundings. When you have to spend a long time just trying to figure out what the container is because it blends so well with its surroundings it is called an 'Evil Cache.' A good example of this kind of cache is a fake rock (the kind people often hide their keys in) in a big rockpile, such as those often near drainage ditches.

 

We wouldn't make it quite THAT hard on you for this cache (but if you want a real Evil Cache, try our Likey Lichen Thinker's Cache also near Waneka). Nonetheless, you will need to work for this one just a little bit. We have placed it a bit more 'in the open' than we might if we were really going for evil status.

 

Please do not pull the container out of its hiding spot. Rather, just open it ever so carefully so it will last here a long time. A tool you might want to add to your Geocaching toolkit is a pair of tweezers for extracting logs from very small caches. 

 

Look for our other nearby caches in the Family Fun Intro to Geocaching Series:

 

  • Naruto Team 7 Stash Cache
  • Oh No! Not Another Tree Hanger!
  • Watch the Birdie
  • Squirrel's Stash Cache
  • The Likey Lichen Thinker's Cache

 

Don't forget to leave a Favorite if you like the hunt and find!

Pretty evil, but I eventually found it. I hope the residents on the other side of the fence didn't mind me poking around for so long.

Took a few minutes...lots of things to inspect, and not where we first thought. Nice hide.

We tried to head out before it got to hot out to grab Lab Caches in Golden and Louisville and pick up a few of the new caches in the area, but mother nature decided differently. Mrs.SDC made the find after a couple of minutes of searching to finally have this well hidden smiley in hand. Very nice hide and camo, TFTC, SL
