Geocache Description:

This is a multi-stage, mystery cache with a theme. The theme is "The Night Sky". Not extremely difficult but should be a slight challenge. It is a drive by.

FTF: Btouch on Dec 1, 2003

 

Congrats Btouch !!!!!


The cache is at the front of my property so please do not worry about trespassing. Park in the driveway. If any dogs show up no worries they won't bite. If you just can't find it try knocking on the door and I'll give you a few extra clues if I'm home.

This is a medium sized Rubbermaid container with items relating to the night sky or night in general located inside the cache. Please exchange items accordingly and sign the log book. All stages are at the front of the property and within a close proximity of each other. Depending on your GPS you might need a compass. Don't be fooled by the name, this is a daytime cache --- It could be done at night but would require a good flashlight and it would be much, much harder.

Here are the mystery directions:

Start at the Moon. Fly through the Stars for 50 adult paces. Turn in the direction of Polaris. Travel an additional 12 paces in that direction before landing. The coordinates for the third stage will be obvious. Go to those coordinates. Something is out of place and shouldn't be here.


****NOTE**** 10/26/2014 -- I did a little maintenance and made sure everything was in order and good to go. A small listing edit to reflect a few changes in the yard. Happy Caching

*** NOTE: 11/11/19 *** The stars got blown down in a recent storm. With that information you need to also figure out where the stars should be.
