Geocache Description:

Themed Multistage Cache, amphibious creature figurines only please (frogs, alligators, salamanders, etc) - none of the usual geocache trinkets.

We're not kidding about the difficulty level. If you found Ant-Hill Cache challenging, don't even go near this one. This multi-cache requires specialized equipment and will take at least two hours to complete.




Please read the full description carefully and be sure you are prepared before beginning.

This is a multistage cache where you (optionally) start at one place then go to a second place and count something to complete the coordinate for the actual cache location.

We highly recommend that you start at the following location.
Start location:
N 47* 54.557'
W 122* 05.573'

From there, go to the first waypoint, look West, and count the concrete pillars upon which the bridge rests.
First waypoint:
N 47* 54.454'
W 122* 05.482'

Take the number of concrete pillars, add 2, and replace "X" in the following waypoint with the result.
Cache location:
N 47* 52.0X2'
W 122* 05.061'

Please watch out for the following hazards. (There may be others not listed here.)
Hazards:
* drowning (bring a life vest)
* hypothermia
* hidden objects in your path
* bad smells

-= Equipment Needed =-
Life Vest
Boat

On behalf of the Snohomish Engineering Division, please be careful to avoid the slope stabilization project currently underway nearby. This is clearly marked with a sign and orange plastic fencing. If you are on track for the first waypoint, you will not traverse the affected area.
