Giving Away The Secrets Of Creative Caches

Puzzle me this: One of Eddy De Clercq’s winning geocache entries.

Drum roll please, Cumbyrocks … And the winner of It’s Not About The Numbers‘ recent DIY contest is Eddy De Clercq.

For his efforts, the Belgium cacher (GC handle: searchjaunt) has won a copy of Vince Migliore’s new book Creative Containers For Geocaching.

Judging this competition was much, much tougher than we expected, with dozens of eye-popping entries. However, De Clercq’s submission clearly set him apart. For starters, it featured 15 of the most amazing geocaches we’ve ever seen, not to mention three cleverly shot geo-films and details of even bigger, better builds.

As all of these hides are to be showcased at event cache GC393X6 The Puyaja Conspiracy, being held in Vlaams-Brabant on September 9 by local geo-group Het Complot, we’ve promised not to spoil the surprise. For now, you’ll have to make do with the photo above of a puzzle which requires finders to put the blocks in the correct order before they can read the final co-ordinates.

De Clercq has promised to reveal his secrets with INATN readers later this month. And if we’re lucky that will include details of the group’s latest creations.

In the meantime, feast your eyes on this selection of geo-genius. We’ve arranged the entries according to their country of origin but you won’t find any GC codes listed unless that hide has been permanently archived.
