Blackshear Geocaching Challenge
Retired August 31, 2021

This cache was previously part of a now retired geocaching challenge in Blackshear! For more information about the challenge, go to Geocaching in Blackshear.



This cache was placed with permission of the business owner and is not inside the business.

A special thank you to HorseShoeChamp for providing the actual cache container! I also want to thank one of the local businesses for donating the hiding place!

Sometimes, while caching out of town, you see a cache that you just have to try to reproduce when you get home. This is one of those caches! We have been dying to hide one with this sort of camo, but didn't know how to acquire the needed hardware. Apparently, "if you ask, you shall receive". So, we sanded it, repainted it, and customized it! (well... Mr. AngelMay3 sanded, painted, and customized it... but close enough).

When you arrive at GZ, you should quickly spot the hiding location...if you pay attention to your surroundings. Since it is a large cache, there is plenty of room for swag...so bring some with you to trade. Much of the swag at placement is very kid friendly...so especially come prepared to trade if you have kids with you. We hope you enjoy the large cache in an urban location!

Permission for this cache was granted by the business owner. Please be respectful of the area and enjoy the cache!
