+BillsBayou Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I've been muggled! On a scale of 1-10, I give this one a 9 since the pieces were still there. My fellow cacher GatorGrl collected the pieces for me. I'd like to see someone post pictures on a similar vein. This is my cache, Chocolate City (GCT343) after a bulldozer came through the area: (click image for larger version) Give me your fried, your torn, Your muggled caches yearning to to be resealed, The mangled refuse of your bulldozed sites. Send pictures, the horrid, twisted warped to me, I lift my thread upon the Geocaching forum. Quote Link to comment
+MountainMudbug Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 First, I have no photo to prove it, but I strongly suspect one of my caches was bulldozed and buried under debris (though I could find no remnants to verify that) Second, my folks in LA emailed me the link to Chocolate City just after you placed it, and I got a huge laugh out of it! That photoshop of Ray is.... divine Quote Link to comment
+StressMaster Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 (edited) They cleared along the area with a brush hog machine. A large ammo can reduced to chunks. TB coin for size only it was not in the cache. Edited March 30, 2006 by StressMaster Quote Link to comment

Wow! Looks like the bomb-squad got to it or something. Notice that the rubber gasket survived though !!!! Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Found this one strewn across the landscape. Lots of tooth marks. Quote Link to comment

+bsx and CeruleanCat Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Our first cache had a bad run in with some type of tractor, I believe. Quote Link to comment
+sbell111 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Our first cache had a bad run in with some type of tractor, I believe. There was an ammo can 'cache emergency kit' in the back of my Jeep when I had my accident. It looked just like that afterwards. Quote Link to comment

+wimseyguy Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I'd like to see someone post pictures on a similar vein. This is my cache, Chocolate City (GCT343) after a bulldozer came through the area: Aw geez, I actually had that puzzle solved for my recent President's Weekend trip to NOLA, but never made it by this one. Now I'm going to have to re-solve it before my next trip. And many of you know how I feel about puzzles to begin with... Quote Link to comment
+Brian - Team A.I. Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 If I could have found any remains whatsoever from my End of the Road (renamed Blaze of Glory) cache, I'd post them here. But the fire that went through the area completely obliterated it. Now there's a new version of the cache about 10x larger and 100x heavier that should remain for awhile, since the entire area has been torched, so there isn't any fuel left to burn with...for now.

+Isonzo Karst Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Stressmaster, that's an amazing amount of damage to an ammo can. Couldn't have been too good for the brush hog blades either. Quote Link to comment
+jusb Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Here is a cache of mine that did not survive the North Texas grass fires of December 2005 Quote Link to comment
+RustyBeerCan Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 This is another bulldozer incident with a Coleman jug @ Buzy Bee Had some fun logging the find on this one Quote Link to comment
+Blue Bomb Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Stressmaster, that's an amazing amount of damage to an ammo can. Couldn't have been too good for the brush hog blades either. I think a brush hog works more like a weed eater, but using chains instead of string. No blades. I could be wrong, though, in which case I concur. Quote Link to comment
+The Crazy H Crew Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Those are some great pictures! Anyone have any more? Brush hogs can have either chains or blades, depending on what type it is. TCHC Quote Link to comment
