| We've noticed that there is a proliferation of little nitro
capsules called Bison tubes for nano caches lately and we don't
particularly care for them. But we figured, hey, if we can't beat
'em, join 'em! |
Bison Tube – Small, metal, water-tight cylindrical container
that can be used for micro-caches. Small enough to fit on a
keychain, and normally used to hold pills. The name is derived from
the company which manufactures most of these types of tubes, Bison
Design. (Source: GeoLex)
Directions to finding this cache:
1. Stand on the corner.
2. Determine where it is.
3. Be patient--lots of automuggles.
4. Go retrieve it when your little white man shows up.
Please be careful crossing the street. There's no need to
leave the crosswalk. Hang on to the kids!

Didn't understand what cache_in_pocket was telling me and then, oh, he had it. Thanks for the fun one.

Found it. Parked the car, grabbed the kids...put the littlest on my shoulders and walked on by. Snagged it quickly and signed the log. Not nearly as perilous as I thought it might be. Definitely a fun one. Thanks for the cache.

Hi Happy & Skippy,
I noticed that this cache has been temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of the period of ‘a few weeks’ as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.
I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.
You may email me at via the link to my profile on the log. Please be sure to include the cache name and GCxxxx number, or better yet, the URL of the cache page.
Thanks for your cooperation! Nomex Northern California Volunteer Cache Reviewer

It looks like this cache may have fallen into the abyss. We'll get down and check on it! Thanks geojeeper, for the information. -H&S

After finishing Susan G Koren 5K walk, spent the afternoon geocaching with Geojeppr. Did not find the cache. Looks like it is gone.

This one stumped me today. Crossed the street several times, looking and looking but trying to be discrete. No luck for me. Thanks anyway.
