Geocache Description:

The Tape at WPT 1 has been removed, so just look for the waypoint marker for stage 2 at the starting location. With the cold weather coming, the tape recorder is not going to work very well.

Stage 1 no longer has a Subterfuge. Just go there and find the quite large WPT marker! You do not have to move or open anything. The waypoint maker is right out in the open, not hidden at all. It's just different than what you've come to expect as a waypoint marker. In fact, it's been there all along, even when the taped message was in place.

Now for some insight on this cache......

The taped message was in fact (2) taped messages. The first was the subterfuge for this waypoint. The second message gave you the real mission.

When the cache page is properly sized on your computer to show one line of text per sentence, the first letter in each line below, gave you the hint to listen to the "2ND MSG ON TAPE". Since the tape is now gone, of course that no longer applies. The text below however, should still be helpful.

With these changes, I am changing the overall difficulty to 3.5
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2.5 on terrain due to the off deer trail bushwhacking required.

Not recommended at night, but you WILL need a flashlight.

Difficulty is very subjective on this one, depends on how you approach it.

Make your approach from the nearby parking area.

Suggest you bring along Bug Spray when seeking this cache

Good GPS'r signal may not always be possible, so walk slowly and allow your GPS'r to settle for best reception.

Only one other cache (GCRBQ8) in this park, but you might as well get it while your're here!

No FTF prize, but there is some nice Swag in the final Container.

This cache will test your IMF (Impossible Mission Force) skills.
