Geocache Description:

Toss a lucky penny in the well and make a wish... that you will find this evil cache!

I found this creepy old well a long time ago when I was exploring some foot trails and always thought it would be a cool spot for a cache.

I had always intended for this to be an easy find but worried it would get muggled despite it's relatively isolated location. So I stood out here in the mud getting bitten by ants and swarmed by mosquitoes trying to think of a suitable cache location and container... I though and I thought and got more and more frustrated. I wanted it to be challenging but certainly not impossible. Then it hit me... and I apologize because it's is more evil than i originally intended.

Park at the waypoint and follow the trail. These trails have all kinds of weird objects that have grown into the trees... remnants from the farm that used to be here prior to this subdivision. Getting there will be more difficult if it has been raining. It is available 24/7 but I don't suggest going at night. As you look around and are bitten by insects you might want to toss a penny in the well and wish for a quick find.

Please log your DNFs. Bring your own pen. Please replace cache exactly as found so it is just as challenging for the next person.

Note: The terrain is easier in dry weather.

EDIT: Added a hint so more people could get smileys off of this one instead of all the frowns. HINT IS A SPOILER.

Claim another smiley if you cache in trash out

Congrads SoftScienceOfficer!!! FTF!

EDIT: Replaced with new / different hide. Clue has been changed accordingly. Less evil than it was but shouldn't wash away anymore.
