Geocache Description:


At the listed coordinates you will find the name of a person who's day and year of birth are the same as the title of this cache.

She was once the head nurse at this place, many, many years ago, and worked as a nurse in this town all of her adult life.

  • A = the month of her death
  • B = the number of letters in her first name.
  • C = the month of her birth
  • DD = the total number of letters in her name

E = A - 1
F = C + 1
GG = (DD * 5) + 3

Waypoint #2:
N 45 00.EBB
W 122 47.FGG

From the second waypoint, the final cache location is 200 feet on a magnetic bearing of: A then (B -1) then (F + 1) (don't multiply the individual numbers. The bearing is three digits. Example: A = 3, B = 4, F = 2: bearing would be 333.) You will note on this bearing, that there are two tall trees lined up. The closest is an evergreen. Your target is the farthest tree. You could also project a waypoint and go from there.

Access seems to be easiest almost straight through, however, there is access from both the north and south. Follow the game trails when you can. There is NO NEED FOR BUSHWACKING, as long as you are careful. As many cachers have noted recently, there is a LOT of over-growth. I did rate the terrain a 3 for a reason.

The cache container is an ammo can.

NOTE: The cache is near a school and may ONLY be accessed in the evenings, weekends, or when school is not in session. Failure to follow this warning may result in a visit from local law enforcement!

The companion cache to this one is 30, but can be completed independently. I may place hints for this cache in 30 on a later date.

Happy caching!
