Geocache Description:

The cache IS NOT at the posted coordinates, but you will want to get an overhead view of the place first thing.

Update 8/3/2013: I've updated some numbers based on the most recent imagery. We're hoping to revive this cache and maybe make it a tiny bit easier.

The actual location of the cache is calculated by using the Makeshift Compass to project a waypoint 15753.82 ft. at a bearing of 17.89 deg. from the posted coordinates.

To use your own compass you'll need to use the following numbers to calibrate it:
254.790 ft.
x.603
x.546

You're looking for a 6"x12" round camouflaged container. Less than 500 ft. car to cache, slightly downhill, and slightly rough terrain.

If you need help projecting a waypoint, just ask. Distances were computed using High Accuracy mode.

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

When hidden the cache contained:

Completed Golden Spoon Card for FTF
Log Book
Pen
Swag
