Geocache Description:

Katka's Danube Crocodile Farm. Thematic geocache by the Danube river near Bratislava.
Katkina Dunajska Krokodylia Farma. Tematicka geocache na brehu Dunaja pri Bratislave.

English description

To log this cache you must do this:

  1. Find a crocodile
  2. Make a nice photo of him
  3. How the crocodile looks like?
    1. The cocodile fints into cache
      1. Find a name for him.
      2. Write the name on him, or write it on a label attache to him.
      3. Write "http://storm.alert.sk/croco" on him or on the label.
      4. Put cocodile in the cache.
      5. You may take another crocodile from the cache
      6. Put the crocodile you took from the cache in another cache. Or find a cozy home for him and keep him. One way or another, send a photo of the crocodile to the cache authors or attach it to the cache log.
    2. The crocodile is too big!
      1. Upload the photo to the geocaching.com website (attach it it the log).
      2. Include the coordinates of the place that you found the crocodile in the log.
      3. Each crocodile may be logged only once, no duplicates, please.
      4. You may NOT take another crocodile from the cache in this case.
      5. You still have to find the cache o log it, even if there is no trade.
DO NOT put any other things in the cache. All non-crocodile entries will be deleted. No dinosaurs, no frogs, no snakes. Only crocodiles. If you do not have a crocodile to trede, find a crocodile somewhere (in the ZOO, a statute, picture) and make a foto of him. That counts too. Even old holiday photos count, as long as you have the coordinates.

You can find out the whereabouts about the crocodiles at storm.alert.sk website.

WARNING The cache is near Slovakia-Austria borderline. Night visits on your own risk. Beware of mosquitos during summer!!!

The cache is hidden in a place that is typical for crocodiles, but yet not too typical. The water should reach the cache, but cache should be water-resistant. But access to the cache may be very difficult if the river is "high". Please don't move stone in front of cache. Stone is there because river Danube may reach cache and take it away. Please don't put this stone on the cache, it could damage the cache. Cache is not located directly on the beach, but few meters before. This is because beach have recently a lot of visitors from dogs owners, fishermen and also camping people. But please give us your opinion on current placement, we are prepared to change it if you don't like it.

You may park your can at N48°08.690' E17°04.531' and take a walk across the river. Reachable by bike also.

To keep with "good" geocaching practices, the cache is NOT recommended for kids. You may find CROCODILES there, that may be a traumatic experience for the kids. I just had to warn you.


Slovensky popis

Pre "log" tejto cache musite urobit toto:

  1. Najdite krokodyla
  2. Urobte mu peknu fotku
  3. Aky krokodyl to je?
    1. Krokodyl sa zmesti do cache
      1. Vymyslite mu meno
      2. Napiste to meno na neho alebo na stitok ktory k nemu pripevnite.
      3. Napiste "http://storm.alert.sk/croco" na neho alebo na stitok.
      4. Vlozte krokodyla do cache.
      5. Z cache si mozete vybrat ineho krokodyla.
      6. Krokodyla co ste zobrali z cache dajte do inej cache. Alebo mu najdite utulny domov a nechajte si ho. Tak ci onak ho odfotte a poslite fotky autorom cache alebo ich pripojte k logu.
    2. Krokodyl je prilis velky!
      1. Pripojte fotku krokodyla k logu.
      2. Do logu uvedte suradnice miesta, kde ste krokodyla nasli.
      3. Kazdy krokodyl moze byt zalogovany iba raz. Nelogujte dvaja hraci toho isteho krokodyla.
      4. V tomto pripade NEBERTE ziadneho dalsieho krokodyla z cache.
      5. Aj v tomto pripade musite fyzicky najst schranku a zapisat sa do logbooku, aby sa vam nalez pocital.
Do cache NEDAVAJTE ine veci okrem krokodylov. Ziadne dinosaury, zaby, hady a uz vobec nie zive svetla a magicke spony. Len krokodylov. Vsetky ne-krokodylove logy bude zmazane. Ak nemate krokodyla na vymenu, najdite nejakeho v okoli (v zoo, sochu, obrazok, atd.) a odfodte ho. To sa rata tiez. Aj stare dovolenkove fotky mozu byt, pokial mate suradnice.

Ako sa maju krokodylovia mozete zistit na stranke storm.alert.sk.

POZOR The poklad je blizko Slovensko-Rakuskej hranice. Hladanie v noci len na vlastnu zodpovednost. Pozor v lete na komare a klieste!!!

Poklad je schovany na mieste typickom pre krokodylov, ale zase nie az tak typickom. Voda by sa ku cache moze dostat, je vsak vodotesna, takze by to malo byt v pohode. Prosime prvy kamen pred cache nechat, nedavat na kesku aby nepukla. Je tam preto aby Dunaj neodplavil kesku prec. Samotne miesto ulozenia nie je az tak zaujimave, plaz a vyhlad na Dunaj najdete par metrov po cesticke. Rozhodli sme sa pre toto odsunute miesto lebo na samotnu plaz chodi dost vela psickarov, rybarov a opekaniachtivych dobrodruhov, po ktorich tu zostava doslova spust a zial aj prvotne miesto ulozenia bolo kvoli tomu prezradene. Ak sa ale umiestnenie nebude pacit, skusime poladat nieco dalsie...

Zaparkovat mozete na N48°08.690' E17°04.531' a potom sa prejst cez rieku. Pohodlne aj pre cyklistov.

Aby som zachoval "dobre" geocacherske mravy, nedoporucujem hladat cache s detmi. V cache mozu byt KROKODYLOVIA co moze byt pre deti velmi traumatizujuci zazitok. Jednoducho vas musim varovat.
