Geocache Description:

Container: Small metal Altoids tin. Bring your own pen/pencil. No object larger than your pinky. Paper, coins, coupons, stickers, batteries, etc. are best.

STOP..... Due to heightened security in NYC, this cache is out of business. The opening it was hiding in, was covered. It may be reopened during the holidays since they need to plug things into the hole (major hint) but maybe not, will check in again in a month or so. Seek at your own risk. Sorry.

Story: I have been eager to try and get a micro cache out in Midtown. So far caches have been located on or near the shoreline in order to get GPS reception. Reception here is terrible. Use clues, maps etc and you should be able to find it.

Note: this area is an open and public area. It is open to the public during all daylight hours (evening also, but maybe not late nights). It is however, well guarded and under some surveillance. Read clues carefully before poking around to limit your activity and being seen. Cache is accessible by public transportation.

Clues

Panthera leo You Panthera leo

Watch the pillars of smog

Turn in the direction of the flow of traffic.

The cache that you seek,
may be found down towards your feet.
where a mouse might hide, find a place to live, or
stop to eat.

Where holiday lights get their juice, you must reach in
Not quite as far as an elbow, down below.

Inside it's on the left side.
Lots of choices, it happens to be,
Closest to the tail, towards the Avenue, don't you see?
