In order to log a 'find' on this earthcache, you will need to visit the published coordinates, take a photo of yourself and GPS (the GPS must be clearly visible in the photo) and answer some questions as below. The terrain rating of this cache is 5 because access is by water only - either by private craft, tour or kayak if the weather is good - in any case special equipment is most definitely required!
Questions/Tasks:
1. Approximately how wide at sea level is the cave?
2. Approximately how tall is the cave from sea level?
3. Approximately how long is the cave?
4. What orientation, in relation to true north, is the cave (to the nearest 10 degrees)?
5. Take a photo with "The Hole in the Rock" in the background clearly showing yourself and your GPS - upload this with your online log.
The questions above will require you to make estimates of the cave dimensions. You are unlikely to find them on the internet and they will probably not be part of any commentary, should you be visiting by way of a boat tour. The orientation of the cave can be estimated by using your GPS to mark waypoints outside each entrance, or by using a compass.
Email the answers to questions 1 through 4 to the cache owner. Do not post these answers in your online log. Your photo should be uploaded with the online log.
You can log this cache straight away after you have emailed your answers to the cache owner, no need to wait for confirmation. Please include the name of this earthcache in the email - you'd be surprised how many people forget. Also, when contacting us with answers, if you want a reply, please include your email address. Any problems with your answers we'll be in touch.
Happy (and Safe) Earthcaching!
