Geocache Description:

This cache will take you to the edge and back in more ways than one.

Cache is not at the listed coordinates.
WP#1 is at the coordinates listed above.
WP#2 is 6.364km from WP#1 at True North(TN)
WP#3 is 90°TN from WP#1 and 135° TN from WP#2
WP#4 is on a direct line between WP#2 and WP#3 and is one third(1/3) the distance from WP#2 to WP#3.
Where the heck is WP#4 and the cache?

WP#1,#2,and #3 are virtual points, only used to determine #4. It's not necessary to go to any of them. For the purpose of this exercise and more accurate coordinates for WP#4; round off the distance between 2 and 3 to a whole number. e.g. 12.9866km=13.0km

Now that you know where the cache is hidden we can tell you a good place to park and begin your hunt is at 313°TN and 188m from the cache. Property owners have kindly granted permission to cross their land to reach the cache site.
Depending on the method you use, you should come within 10m of the cache.


An easier but longer route is from the nearby powerline.

But Wait! There's more. Once you find the cache you still have to open it. In order to do so you will need a four letter word. (Not that one!)

All the information needed to find and open this cache is available somewhere on this page. You may be cross-eyed before you're done! Sometimes you have to look behind the scenes, beyond 2 dimensions.
Please don't log a find unless you have signed the log book.
Feel free to contact us to confirm your numbers before you head out.

GOOD LUCK!
