Well, I had some ideas what I wanted to do, but in the end went with
this:

    def populateDict(self, pth):
        lastDir = None
        vStr    = None
        for root, dirs, files in os.walk(pth):
            r= root.split('geo_cache')[1][1:]
            if len(r) > 0:
                keys  = r.split('/')
                kStr  = 'self.cacheDict'
                for k in keys:
                    kStr += '["' + k + '"]'
                kStr+='={}'
                exec(kStr)
