Geocache Description:


Unlike all the other caches out here, this cache actually is at the coordinates listed. The 2 things that will make this difficult are the fact that it is several miles from the nearest access point and it is 28 feet below the surface resting in salty muck sleeping with the brine shrimp. It is not necessary to trade for the badges. Anything left here is likely to get ruined anyway.

Please don't try to get this cache from a canoe. A sailboat would be the only sensible way to get this cache. The anchor has been designed to be easy to catch with a grapelling hook. We highly doubt anyone would want to dive to get this cache. The cache is in a nalgene soup container with a large screw on lid. There are over 20 commerative badges printed on waterproof paper. If the cache is found and the buttons are ruined then we will trade a ruined badge for a new one. Please be very careful if you try for this cache or you may find yourselves Sleeping With The Brine Shrimp!

For you cachunut chasers out there, the anchor is a stationary cachunut. The nut number is 368 and the code word is welded onto both sides of the heavy circular center in large letters so as to be readable even after some corrosion has taken place. This cachunut is worth 50 points at www.cachunuts.com but please, if you find this nut don't take it with you. It is stationary and must be returned back to the same coordinates. Log a nut pick at this cache (Sleeping With The Brine Shrimp GCP9A6) and then log a nut placement at this very same cache (Sleeping With The Brine Shrimp GCP9A6).
