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.

July 12 by Team DeLorme (328 found) 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). Team DeLorme Ellen & Jessie & HA
[view this log] | June 16 by iampaw (3894 found) 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.
[view this log] | May 11 by TeamHorwich (1699 found) 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...
[view this log] | May 9 by Bigrock95 (4228 found) 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. ~Rocky
[view this log] | April 18 by rmueller (107 found) We must have really been having a senior moment- couldn't find any sign with three words- lots with four + words, but none with three... Will need to come back another time, and maybe things will look different...
