More Hard/Difficult to Find Geocaches (Comments, Critiques, Applauding are all Encouraged!)

This cache is located in Southern California, in the Pac Man Series.




This next cache, which was very difficult to find is also in the Pac Man Series in Southern California.


This tricky(it really was a doosie to find!) is located in Apple Valley, CA. Notice the many possible hiding location, and see where it actually is hidden. The container is a micro plastic tube glued to the bottom of a rock and placed in a sleeve in the ground.  


 This cache was only semi difficult to find(mostly due to gps bounce underneath all the trees), but it's a fun one worth sharing. Notice the red spider eyes!

Located in beautiful Logan, Utah, this cache actually has a real birds nest in the top, and an extra compartment in the bottom.

 Any ideas where the long green bison tube is hidden in this picture? (As a side note, there is a picture below this of a bridge. That bridge is just above the cement block in the upper left part of this photo)
This is the log that is hiding the bison tube.

The knot in this log is actually hollow, and can be pulled out to find the bison tube attached to the knot with fishing string. This one is a classic example showing the need to touch anything that might be a candidate for a hide.

This is the bridge mentioned earlier, and where the original hide was(until the CO found out it was placed illegally and decided to archive it. Kudos to him for his integrity, becuase this was a local doosie and had a bit of fame around its difficulty). Can you see where this bison tube is hidden?

A "TOTT" (tool of the trade, aka tweezers) was definitely required for this one! The hide was made from the knot in a 2x4 and a hole was drilled to hide the bison tube. The tube was attached to this knot with fishing string and hot glue.

This cache is on the Wind Caves Trail in Logan Utah. Can you see any possible hiding spots for a small pill bottle?
If you guess in the middle of the trail, then you guessed right!

This fun one is on the Logan River. Can you spot the peanut butter jar? It's camo'd pretty well.
The peanut butter jar is wrapped in the bark of this tree(a dead piece that was found on the ground was used to obtain the bark) and two slices of wood glued to the top and bottom. The lid and jar are wrapped separately so the jar can still be opened and closed.

Hard to Find Geocaches (Comments, Critiques, Applauding are all Encouraged!)

Cache: A fake cactus with a container inside.


Cache: Can you see the cache?  Me neither. That's because the cache is actually inside the pole. The hint for this cache is 'not green'.  After looking all over, I realized it was not the green wire that was supposed to be tugged on.


Sweet Fetchin' Beans eh!  The bison tube is on a retractable wire.





Cache:  This cache is the skinny branch in the middle of the picture. The branch itself is the cache.
 Too bad the log was missing.





Cache: There is an ammo can inside a digital cammo stuff bag. It's near the base of the tree.  See it?



Cache: This cute cache is hidden in the vines on the call of the Fine Arts Center at a university.




Cache: This cache is hidden in plain sight.
Magnetized. These letters are the cache name, and the CO's call sign on his ham radio.



Cache: This Travel Bug Hotel is at a truck stop on the free way.  See it yet?  It's the small electrical box in the left side of the large elec. box.


Cache: Easy to see, but no one is around to walk by it.


Cache: This cache.  Spot it?  No.  It took the CO's son coming out of their house to give us a hint.  The cache it the bolt in the center of the photo. It is not connected to the bolt head and unscrews from the nut to reveal a log inside the hollowed out bolt.
