Tower
Cache
This is a combination microcache and webcam cache. Both are
located in the vicinity of the Electrical and Computer Engineering
Department on the Bradley University Campus. The GPS signal will
become very weak in this location. The area around the cache is
fairly secluded, although you may sometimes feel like several eyes
are staring down at you. Please use discretion. Above
all else… do not open any gates and STAY
AWAY FROM ELECTRICAL UTILITIES! I did not hide
the cache in these areas.
You must find the microcache to get credit. Obtaining a photo
on the WebCam is optional. The webcam is located within 100
ft of this cache. You will find instructions on the
location of this camera on the log sheet. With a partner's
help, you position yourself in front of the camera and call your
friend to have them take a picture of you by clicking on the
following link:
http://gdansk.bradley.edu/olekmali/projects/webcam/index.html
You
can then upload your photo to the geocaching web site as part of
logging your find. It is not yet possible to save photos in
the traditional way with the current code. However, one way
is to capture the screen using Shift-PrintScreen and then pasting
the photo into any number of picture programs.
Alternatively, the following link will obtain a still image that is
easily saved by right-clicking the mouse. Clicking the
refresh button will update the camera view.

Many thanks to the Electrical
and Computer Engineering Department and especially to Dr.
Aleksander Malinowski for the use of his WebCam.
note added June 14, 2005
As stated in the description, taking a picture is optional and
finding the hidden cache will be given full credit. However, I’m
noticing that several people are only posting notes and not
receiving credit. Because this is classified as a WebCam Cache,
users probably need to log the find as a “Web Cam Photo Taken”. I
don’t have Administrator privileges to change the log and can only
delete those that are inappropriate. You should be able to go into
the edit section and change your log. Sorry for the confusion. Bush
