Cache is not at the above coordinates. In fact, the above coordinates have nothing to do with the puzzle. Forget you ever saw them.

Dreams are funny. Some say they are prophetic. Others say they tell us about our personalities. Some say they are just the mind's way of cleaning house.

In our dreams we are catapulted from agonies to desires. They range from ancients spouting wisdom that fades with the light of day to bowlfuls of delicious food that change into slimy creatures before our eyes.

A dream even led me to the creation of this puzzle. Once you’ve solved it, you will have a set of coordinates. Don't go there, it's private property. Instead, you will perform the following calculations:

From the decimal portion of the north coordinate (the part to the right of the decimal), subtract 197.

To the decimal portion of the west coordinate (the part to the right of the decimal), add 38.

You now have the coordinates of the “Dream State” cache. The cache is an ammo can at the base of a tree. To get within walking distance of this tree, you will need a high-clearance vehicle (not necessarily 4WD). I suppose you could walk from where the paved road ends, but I wouldn’t recommend it. I parked about ½ mile south of the cache. You may be able to get closer.

Original Contents of the cache include:

2 mini-carabiners
Staple Remover/Letter Opener
Magnifying Glasses
4 carabiner combo locks
Cat toy
Dog toy
2 Magnetic key holders
“What Dreams May Come” DVD

Nice puzzle,
I was out for a day of riding around with the D5freese and The Fat Cats on Bear Vally loop.... we drove to within 10' of the cache... Sue's jeep can go anywhere!
Thanks for adding to our fun!
