Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the posted coordinates 

This is the fifth in a series of origami caches.

Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding, which started around the 17th century. It has since then evolved into a modern art form. The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami. The number of basic origami folds is small, but they can be combined in a variety of ways to make intricate designs.

The Japanese word for frog is "kaeru". It is the same word meaning "return." Japanese travelers carry a small frog amulet with the intent of returning safely home. Further, small pebble-sized frog amulets are carried in their wallets so money will not be lost. Also, if the frog’s mouth is wide open, it is considered even luckier.


Print out the picture below (enlarge it if necessary) then cut along the lines to make it square. Follow the images below to fold it, keeping the numbers on the inside. The fold lines will help you know if you have it the correct way. When you're finished folding it, label it with the letters A-O as shown.
