Geocache Description:

The Posted coordinates are not for the cache or anything to do with the cache they are for the summit of Rattle Snake Hill.

This is not really a puzzle cache although you may get a little puzzled trying to decide which WP marker to start with ( they both have the coordinates for the final cache). One may be a shorter hike than the other but is it really less work that may be the puzzling question you will have to decide for yourself.

For those who want to find the final cache fast you will have to find WP-1A or WP-1B these are small M+M containers
There you will find the coordinates for the final cache.
If you would enjoy a longer more fulfilling hike. Hike the Friends trail and the Rattle Snake Hill Trail together they make a 5-mile loop if you are a fast hiker and your geo skills are good you mite be able to do the loop in 2 hours. There are many trails that go between these two trails (short cuts if you will) but you might miss Friends Trail#1 cache or Friends Trail#2 cache. The loop does require a short walk up Wares Road and a short Walk on Forthill Road. You will find a map in my photo gallery I think it will be helpful with parking and the trails and don’t miss the view of mount Watatic from the trail.WP-1A and WP-1B both have coordinates for the final cache
Thank you and have fun.
