A Year in MINIons- MINIon #3X54X

3x54xAs many of you know, one of my hobbies is Geocaching. While I produce the comic strip for FTF Geocacher Magazine, I’m really not a die hard cacher. Geocaching is a great way to find off the beaten path places and to explore, but I really don’t care about how many caches I find in a day, or how many total caches I have. I highly recommend it, but some people just take it way too seriously. So what does this have to do with MINIon #3X54X? first of all this weekend marked the 15th anniversary of the start of Geocaching, and today a group of us went out to find a specific geocache: “MacGyver’s Playground.” While I have done a number of wonderful caches, this one is one in a million. First of all it is a “Premium Member” Cache, so not just anyone can do it (you have to pay the membership fee of a bazillion dollars), secondly it has a terrain rating of 5 and a difficulty rating of 5 so it isn’t a park and grab. I would definitely get a group together because it is a lot more fun that way, and each of you may have skills needed to complete this challenge.
That’s really all I have to say- NO SPOILERS. Stage 1 (this is a multi-cache) blew me away with how ingenious and evil it was… after that it just got better- as if that was even possible. Kudos to Team Itchy & Scratchy for this fantastic cache, and for that there is MINIon #3X54X.
