Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

The cache is not at the above coords! Parking is... This is a fairly simple, two-stage multi.
I was going to call this "Dave's Dilemma...To B(ushwhack) or Not To B(ushwhack.)" Or maybe, "A Senior Moment in the Woods." Or, how about, "Finding a geocache in 3 easy steps and 1 hard one." This is really a tribute cache to all of you...I mean us, and our "Senior Moments" while caching...like the time you left the GPS at home while out running for a FTF (Sound familiar HD?!?) or forgetting to mark your car...or that unnecessary bushwhacking (right, Dave?) Well anyway, you are looking for a sign in the woods for the first stage. The sign contains 3 words that you will use to translate in to the final coords.

A=# of letters in first word

B=# of letters in second word

C=# of letters in third word

D=A+A

E=A+B

F=C-B

Follow the sign to 43 50.BDD / 070 14.AEF

The cache is a rather large locknlock with some fun, "Senior" items. FTF prize is also a mutliple choice, depending on your "tastes." Log book and pen included. Have fun, be careful, and Happy Cachin'! Round-trip is just over a mile. Bring bug spray.

We really enjoyed these caches in the forest. Left traveling pants to catch ride on next train (maybe to the ski slopes - ya never know). Took slow sign, HA learning to drive (think of it as a public service).

We got to the trail head and was a little confused, where was the sign? We finally found it and worked out the correct coords. We both had PN-40's mine said that it was.18 away and the other one said .39 the opposite way?? I later found out why, operator error. Found the cache and left a geocoin and took nothing.

doing some cache maintenance today - checked and the sign is still there - it is near the bottom of the loop of the trail at the coords listed on the waypoints part of the cache page...

I'll have to join the seniors....Knew there was a sign but never noticed that there were coords for it. As I walked the trail, I didn't see one but then I likely wasn't at GZ. We were looking in the rocks at parking for a micro... Reading the cachepage can save a lot of time. I will be more prepared next time and bring my magnifier and cane.
