Geocache Description:

Parking is very close by. The cache is located in an area that is very exposed. Please watch for muggles. Seasonal Bugs / mice invade the cache at times. The ground around GZ is lower area and the grass can stay wet or muddy at times. NO Room for trade items. TEMP-Situation....

Recently this cache was muggled. The Muggle that stole it was a real mean rat. I'm struggling deciding what kind of cache to place in honor of Sven.

Until I can come up with something better; I've placed a simple container in the crook of the tree. - One note: Please beware pf insects and rodents while searching for the cache. :)

I'm going to leave the description and video of the Muggled cache - It will be a video tribute to how someone wanted to leave a tribute to him.
---------------------------------
Below is from the original Muggled Cache Tribute to SVEN. Sorry for thoes who won't get to see this one... Man, I really hate mean MUGGLES. - the rats!

You will not need to tear or pry anything apart in the container to find the log book. Please leave everything inside the container display in tack for the next cacher to see. The logbook container is NOT INSIDE the display area that shows a tribute to Sven. He wouldn't have appreciated the EASE of that type of find. Though, he would, I'm sure chuckle at cachers who create their own fake log - Just to prove they were there. (I find that funny myself. :) ) However, to the cacher who wants to sign the real log, who wants a tiny challenge- IT IS AT HAND. Happy Caching
_______________________________________________________

Steve Love, "Sven", through his YouTube channel Geocachespoilers was the person who introduced me to Geocaching. I've gotten so much pleasure from Geocaching I can honestly say the game changed my life. When I wasn't able to physically search for caches, I started placing caches. In this way, I've still felt like I'm participating in the game. I honestly would have given up on being a cache owner if it weren't for Sven. He was a great caching mentor. He will be missed.

Please leave Travelbugs and Geocoins on the "Svengalie" side of the cache container.

Please exchange tradeables or swag on the "geocachespoilers" side of the cache container.
