Geocache Description:


I have wanted to put a cache in here for quite some time but never really figured out how to make it more challenging until now.

This cache is not located at the above location however this set of coordinates is one that you will need to find the cache.
At the posted coordinates you will find a street sign. It is at a major crossroads or "Island In The Woods." There are two other corners with similar street signs

The coordinates posted above will put you at one corner of the Island. You will need to go to the other two corners and take your own set of coordinates and triangulate to find the middle of the Island.
Your coordinates will most likely be just a little bit different than the coordinates I used to place this cache hence making the difficulty a bit harder. Let your GPS sit and average for a minute or two at each corner.

I hid the cache at the exact spot my GPS told me was the center of the Island. There are many good hiding spots within a 30 ft radius of where the cache is hidden. There is however no need to bushwack to get in here if you look around a bit. There are plenty of trails you can follow to get in there.

There is plenty of off road parking to the southeast of the Island.

Mr. Lincoln Awaits the FTF!
Katydid96 & Bigsis91 are claiming a beta find on this one as they were present when it was placed.
