Scarab'

Once again I went searching for Scarabaeidae Deltochilum Gibbosum's Delight" by Artopsy, and once again it kicked the &$%# out of me! This has got to be the most challenging cache in Southeastern Wisconsin!

I agree, but i did find it after my fourth trip and 5 pair of eyes. After you find it you will be slapping your forehead and shaking your head smiling.

The only cache i've come acroos that rivils it was The Entwives Tumor, but that one isn't active anymore.

Good Luck, Mark

I'd be willing to meet you there and give you a getting "warmer" - "colder" guidance to the cache. (if it's still there)

If anyone else is interested in putting a nail in this coffin, we could all meet there at a certain date/time.

I would also be happy to do some on sight coaching [I will not reveal it's location]. just post a date/time. I am sure one of us can make time to help anyone the wants the coaching.

If you have made an attempt to find this cache, you owe it to yourself to find it. This is an exceptional lesson in camoflage technique.

Artopsy needs to get involved here as well.

Hey that's a good idea. We could have a mini gathering of cache hunters scouring the woods! I have off on Sunday (3-23)if that works for everyone. I wonder how many times I've walked past this elusive dung while searching.

I'd like to be there just to stand back and enjoy a good laugh! I remember pointing to it for someone and they still didn't recognize it! I got a picture of it here but unless you know what you're looking at, it's just a bunch of...

I was one of the people that needed to have my nose rubbed in it.

But as of Saturday, I have a multiple in the same park so there's an opportunity for a two-fer for anyone who shows up for the gang cache.

Doh!

Sorry

As the first finder of Scarab, I would just like to take this opportunity to say:

Neener, neener!

LOL!

(God, I'm SUCH a jerk!)

I wonder how hard Scarabaeidae Deltochilum Gibbosum's Delight would be by today's "standards"

Hmmm...

Onward Ranger Boy, onward!

Went there yesterday, just for 10 minutes as the sun was setting. Didn't expect to get very far in 10 minutes on RB's new hide at that location. We were on our way to attend a play and thought we'd do some prelim scouting. We'll be back. Oh yes. We will be back. Cool
