“Geocaching” is an activity where people seek out hidden treasures with the help of GPS. Strangers will hide a box or capsule and note its coordinates. Then, other people will attempt to find the hidden cache by locating it with GPS. It’s basically a modern day treasure hunt. Some people get really into it, which is so cool.
A Reddit user decided to participate in a geocaching hunt (in epic fashion) by making this cool hiding place for his capsule. Finding this would take some serious effort, but it’d be worth it.
He found a log to hide the treasure in.

Then, he sawed it in half.

This is the container he was going to hide inside.

Drilling out some holes to make room.
CitadelSaint
Nearly there!
CitadelSaint
He added a ring pull so it would be easier for geocachers to get inside.
CitadelSaint
Then, he included a hinge, so the log could open up.

That’s why he named it “Crocodile’s Head.” (Clever.)

Now, to hide the hinge…
CitadelSaint
He stapled on some fake ivy to disguise it.

Then, he added even more to make the log look less processed and more realistic.
CitadelSaint
Then, he found a great hiding place.
CitadelSaint
Looks pretty natural nestled in the flowers, right?
CitadelSaint
Once people find it, they can open it with a little pull.
CitadelSaint
Open wide, Mr. Crocodile.
CitadelSaint
The treasure compartment is cleverly hidden inside.
CitadelSaint
You’d have to feel good after finding this stash!
