Curse of the FTF # 11 - Gauteng (11-11-11) Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Knagur Green: Due to no response from the CO after the request to maintain or replace the cache, I am archiving it to, stop it showing on the listings and/or to create place for the geocaching community.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported. Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained in the Help Center

If the CO feels that this cache has been archived in error please feel free to contact me via email quoting the GC number concerned

Thank you for understanding

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

Please note cache is not at the published co-ords. This cache is to be found along one of the trails in Kloofendal and will require a short hike. The hike should not take much more than a hour.


The rules are really simple:

1. Whoever finds the cache first (FTF) should place the next cache in the series [The Curse of the FTF - Gauteng #5(xyz etc.)] within 1 month. Otherwise the curse will prevent you from ever getting another FTF again !(just joking)

2. It is asked that you only be a FTF for this series once. This is to give others a chance to be the FTF.

3. It can be any type of cache (Puzzle, Multi, etc.)

4. When the next cache is placed e-mail the owners of all the preceding caches so a link can be added.

5. The cache must be placed in Gauteng only.

6.If you are the FTF in this series and do not wish to continue the series, PLEASE say so in your log entry. This will give the 2nd-TF, 3rd-TF, etc. the option to continue the game. NOTE: to all who hunt FTF's in this series... Reviewers have been instructed by Groundspeak not to approve caches that have a requirement to place an additional cache or caches as a condition of logging the find. You can make a suggestion that the person do so, but it can't be a requirement
