myside: In the process of the city cutting back greenery they completely removed the cache location and with that the cache. I don't plan on replacing it. I hope everyone whom searched for this cache had an enjoyable time. Cheers!

Geocache Description:


This cache is located on the Three Rivers Trail and is accessible by walking from Riverside Park.

There is just enough room for a couple small trades. Make sure to return the cache tightly where you found it.


Pitfall! was created by David Crane, a programmer who worked for Activision in the early 1980s. In a November 2003 interview with Edge he described how in 1979 he had developed the technology to display a realistic little running man and in 1982 was searching for a suitable game in which to use it...


..The player must maneuver a character known as Pitfall Harry through a maze-like jungle in an attempt to recover 32 treasures in a 20 minute period.

Along the way, he must negotiate numerous hazards, including tar pits, quicksand, water holes, rolling logs, rattlesnakes, scorpions, walls, fire, and crocodiles. Harry may jump over or otherwise avoid these obstacles by timing his climbing and running, and in certain places he can swing on a vine to avoid them... - Wikipedia Pitfall!
