Hangin' With Mr. Hoff

Gino and I went to find the geocache Hangin' With Mr. Hoff. It was in the woods behind a small park in Haddon Heights called Hoff's Playground, named after a long-time and well-respected baseball coach at Haddon Heights High School.

It was actually Gino who found the cache container! The kid was looking in one area while I was in another, and he happened to kick over a little stumpy piece of wood and there it was! Honestly, I never would have thought to look there.

The cache container was amazingly inventive. I've never seen another like this. The person who placed this one had stuck a piece of 4" PVC pipe into the ground, and mounted a little hook onto the bottom of a flat piece of wood where a loop held the lid of the cache container. The container fit perfectly into the PVC pipe and the wood was the perfect camo.

Gino with the GPS set and ready to go!

A very inventive hiding place.
