I was the fifth person to find this cache and the first American to.
FATF!! (Fist Ami to Find) I decided to search for this cache today during my daily lunch time Geocaching adventure. I left my workplace it the Miesau Army Depot in my Dodge Nitro Decepticon Transformer Geocachingmobile and after in about 10 – 15 minutes I was at the parking spot. I remembered this location since I have already found the cache at the wasserturm.
I entered the coordinates in my Garmin Colorado 400t and headed out to the cache. As I neared the cache location I found it a bit of a challenge to find the actual cache. My had a good signal on my GPS but was still unable to find it. I decided to use my cacher instincts and forget about the GPS. In less then five more minutes I finally found the cache. It is about 20 meters off the listed coordinates. I found it at N 49.28.348 E 7.23.095. I quickly signed the logbook and replaced the cache right where, and exactly how, I found it.
I dropped in one of my WORLD FAMOUS Germany Bert Wooden Nickel Travel Bugs.
After finding the cache I visited with the horses that were enjoying their lunch in the nearby pasture. They would not come hear due to the electric fence around the pasture.
My personal trackables and a coupla of other trackables visited the cache.
Thanks for creating this cache and showing me a spot in Germany that I never would have visited. Good luck to the next seekers and please remember … no geocache find is worth losing your life or getting seriouly injured. SAFETY FIRST!!!
FATF!! (First Ami to Find!) I decided to search for this cache today during my daily lunch time geocaching adventure since it is the closest traditional cache to my workplace in at the Miesau Army Depot that I have not found.
I took off from work in my Dodge Nitro Decepticon Transformer Geocachingmobile and soon was at a good parking spot to start my search.
In no time at all I was at the cache location and within a few minutes it was in my hand. I quickly signed the logbook and replaced the cache exactly where and how I found it.
On the way back to my cachemobile I stopped by a giant forest ant hill that I spotted on my way to the cache. It is amazing how these litte insects can create such a big mound. All the ants were busy at work.

Geocaching is a high-tech scavenger hunt type game where you search hidden containers. Geocaching can be done by anyone in almost all locations in the world. Geocaching is a wonderful way to get out and explore the area you live in or are visiting. Geocaching will get you out of the house and is a great way to get exercise by walking or riding a bicycle.
Geocaching is normally done with a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) device which enables you to travel to specific latitude and longitude (lat/long) where you will find a hidden container. The container is called a Geocache.
The Geocache container contains a logbook and depending on its size may contain little toys, Geocoins, and/or Tracking Bugs.
Check eBay for an inexpensive handheld GPS. Below are some that currently for sale. You don’t need to by the most expensive one to start out. Buy a cheaper one and learn on it. Then if you really get into Geocaching you might want to buy a more expensive one with more features.
