Close to the lake in a place no sane person would want to go --- except maybe an obsessed geocacher. Just how obsessed are you?
There is really no good reason for anyone to want to attempt this cache. We question our own sanity in even wanting to place it. We really don't even know what posessed us to put a cache in such an inhospitable environment. Believe us folks, you do not want to come here.
To begin with, there is nothing in this cache worth trading for. Seriously. It is literally filled with some of the most useless junk ever seen in a cache. We hate used golf balls in caches, so guess what?....this one has 13 of them....old ones. One of them is nearly split in half so we just wrapped some rubber bands around it. We hate spare change in caches so guess what?....this one has a few pennies and 2 nickels thrown in. Oh, and don't forget the 1 cent plastic lizard and snake. We also wonder why anyone ever puts handi-wipes in caches -- so we threw a few of them in. We threw in some used pens so that folks who don't bring anything to trade and then find something they want and put in the only thing they have on them -- "a used pen" -- can trade evenly.
There's really no sane reason to even want to attempt this cache.
If you like stickers and thorns -- lots of them -- you'll like this cache.
You'll also like it if you enjoy swarming insects -- on the ground and in the air.
We didn't see any snakes or ticks but there are probably some of those around too.
And now there is nearby construction to deal with.
We are dead serious about all of the above.
This is by far, hands down, the most worthless cache we have ever placed.
Basically, it is a test of common sense, of which geocachers are seldom accused of posessing in vast quantity.
So anyway, if you decide in a moment of unsound judgement to go for this cache we recommend the following:
-long sleeved shirt and long pants
-boots, gaiters
-insect repellent
-leather gloves
-eye protection
-back-up batteries.....two sets
-a flashlight if you want to see what's in the container
-patience, lots of patience
-time, a whole lotta time
-optional equipment: machete, flame thrower, backhoe (jk!!)
*Important* -- please leave the container set as it is and just remove the lid only to access the contents.
If at any point you decide it's not worth it, there is no shame in turning around and giving up. You won't have to tell a soul -- and perhaps you'll actually be smarter than those who proceed to find "The Most Worthless Cache in Moses Lake!"
One more thing. If anyone wants to put out a Moses Lake cache that is more worthless than this one -- go ahead -- we'll gladly change the name of this one to "The 2nd Most Worthless Cache in Moses Lake" -- because we've done it once now and we're not crazy enough to do it again!
This cache was inspired by one that lightmann found in Seattle by Fishiam -- "The ugliest spot on UW campus" --(GCT74D). A truly ugly, ugly cache. In fact, it was so ugly that he shut it down a few months later. UPDATE (spring 2010) Fishiam's cache has reappeared. Same spot, different number. Anyone who goes to find that one is crazy too.
