Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are False. To the best of our knowledge there are no caches near the coordinates. You must solve the puzzle to find the correct coordinates for this micro. Since it is a micro, bring a writing instrument.

This is a puzzle cache similar to one we solved in Florida (FL-Sitting Ducks GCQM59). Our thanks to Jack Sparrow & Crew for the idea.
There are two reference pictures.
Reference 1

Reference 2

Your task is to
1) Figure out where the reference pictures are.
2)Take waypoint marks at each of the references (see title).
3)Calculate the location of the cache given the distance from each of the references.
The cache is located 5815 feet from Ref 1.
The cache is located 15955 feet from Ref 2.

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