He-Man Micro Haters Club - WNY Chapter! Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Szuchie: Today we bid farewell to this ammocan-loving cache. And while it is now retired, my head-shaking distaste for uninspired micro-laden parking lots, guardrails and lampskirts continues unabated…just in case you were worried I had gone mad. [;)] The He-Man Micro Hating Club lives on forever and ever baby!

A big thanks to everyone who visited this cache, and in turn, has placed well thought-out ammocan hides in the woods for folks like me who love spending time in the forest. It’s an honor and a pleasure!

Geocache Description:


A letter from the President of the HMMH Club – WNY Chapter:

My dear Western New Yorkers, welcome to the He-Man Micro Haters Club!

This cache was devised as a result of one too many micro caches in alleys, parking lots and guardrails. It was such lackluster scenery that caused us to say to ourselves, “Selves, we need to get back to the root of what geocaching is all about…..right after a sandwich!”

Well, following lunch, we hopped to it and here is our creation - The He-Man Micro Haters Club! The point of this silly geo-club is to poke a little fun at micros (read that as: "We’re joking around folks, don't go wigging out here!" Hahaha). As such, this cache will offer you a long multi-hide hike through the woods of the Erie County Forestry. While enjoying your hike in these gorgeous woods please keep in mind that most of the cache legs can be traveled to via marked paths, old logging trails, and even the occasional life-saving deer superhighway. As such we suggest taking note of the trail maps located at several of the entrances to the forestry so you won’t miss an inch of exquisiteness. As seems to be the norm, the reception in the forestry is spotty, so great care has been taken to ensure the cords are as accurate as possible (so give your GPS the opportunity to settle down before initiating your search). Finally – please know that at no time will any of the legs lead you into, and or through, private property.

Additionally, while seeking (and hopefully finding) the assorted legs of this multi, please take great care in preserving the stages for future cache finders. And, as always, please re-hide each of the stages better than when you found it - make the next cacher have as challenging and fulfilling a journey as you did (because that's what caching is all about)!

***The He-Man Micro Hater Club – WNY Chapter: Super-Informative “Fine Print”***

Okay – so those oversensitive to the plight of the teeny-weenie cache hides may not get such a chuckle out of this one as some of the ‘ammo can in the woods’ enthusiasts, but truly, the title of this cache is not meant to bash all micro caches. Everyone has done a micro or two that was pure brilliance and to this day gets included in our list of fondest geo-stories. We encourage anyone and everyone to come and enjoy this cache, regardless if you love little caches or not. We just wanted to have a little fun ribbing them, while offering you a rigorous hike in a beautiful atmosphere.

Caching truly has evolved as a sport of tastes, and those of us at the HMMH Club understand and welcome this. Our main goal is to encourage cachers to take the opportunity to spend a little time putting together a thoughtful and enjoyable cache that will take us (the geo-community) on an inspiring adventure to a delightful and interesting location.

(And of course, picking out a snappy title for your cache never hurt either!)

From all of us at the HMMH Club, we hope you have an amazing journey, and that each and every one of your cache finds are as awesome as the places you visit – Enjoy!!!

Sincerely,

Szuchie
President of Geo-Relations: He-Man Micro Haters Club – WNY Chapter
