Geocache Description:


Welcome to Micro At The Lair

Located on the campus of West Virginia University


Located in the heart of the downtown Morgantown campus, Micro At The Lair has been a vital part of the geocaching community for over 13 years! Hidden just behind the Mountain Lair, a central hub for students, this is a good place to come and shoot some hoops, throw a ball around, or just sit and relax. This is a very high muggle area and extreme discretion should be used. For the reason, the cache had to be hidden extremely well to avoid being stolen as it has been in the past. The immense amount of muggles coupled with the difficult to locate container is what earns this cache its D5 rating.

You are looking for a small silver nano container that contains a log only; tweezers and a writing utensil are required. There are electrical boxes nearby please do not look in them the cache is not there. Also, you do not need to climb into the flower beds, you can sit down and reach it. Please replace exactly as you found it and do not remove the container from its hiding position.
