Geocache Description:


SEE trackable TB47MDF.

~~~~This cache is the reward for capturing "The Flag." The cache is not at the coordinates specified. In order to log this as a find you must bring the flag to this puzzle cache base. Please keep this trackable in Southeastern Wisconsin within a 20 mile radius of any base cache.

 

 


Capture the Flag was first a Reindeer game first played in 1823.  This is a bit of a twist on the theme as the new Reindeers have cell phones and GPS devices to find those hidden bases.  Dapture the Flag is a game played where two or more teams each have a flag and the objective is to capture the other team's flag, located at the teams' base and bring it safely back to their own base.


Instructions for the trackable: Do NOT place this trackable in my base, rather bring it to my base and mark it as "visited". When you have visited the bases, promptly place this trackable in another cache, a cache that you make, own, or is one of your favorites in Southeastern Wisconsin. Many are playing the game so try not to hold onto it for too long as Dasher and Feckless are always trying to capture my base and sometimes Dino_Girl's base.  She had some tall Dinos around to hide hers, its up there.  

 

Please place the trackable in a muggle proof cache. Please keep this trackable in Southeastern Wisconsin within a 20 mile radius of any base cache.

 

If you really like the game and want to see everyone scramble, create your own base like the Reindeer have and add the coordinates to the trackable. 



Email me with questions. Cache is camo'd plastic container. Difficulty of 4.5 secondary to obtaining the trackable. Physical cache difficulty = 2-2.5.

 

You are on your honor that you brought the trackable with you. Although this is not a requirement, if you want to prove it take a picture of you with the flag near GZ. If you have any questions, please contact me.
