Geocache Description:

This is hide #60 for me. Troutonthebrain and I wanted to do something different from our other caches. We hope you have fun.

Two paths diverged near a crusty wood,
And sorry I could not wander both
And be one cacher, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better coords,
Because it was shoveled and clear;
Though as for that the muggles there
Had worn them really about the same (or none at all),
And both that morning equally lay (but morning will do you no good)
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day (or night)!
Yet knowing good coords leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever double back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh, or in my log
Sometime later today or tomorrow hence:
Two paths diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
in order to find the cache
And that has made all the difference.

This cache is only available at night so bring a reliable light source and clear vision. Many eyes will help. Once you've arrived at GZ look around for one reflective beacon. Once you've spotted which way to travel, your search will not take long though deep snow may slow your progress. Each subsequent reflective beacon should be visible from the previous one. Your goal is to spot a final 'set' of three reflectors. These three mark the final location. A set of three like-sized trees guard a cache which has a very low muggle factor but will likely be covered with snow for 8 months of each year. Reflective beacons will vary from three feet off the ground to six feet up and the color of the reflector does not matter. Because this is a night time cache, you will likely have many parking options.

Note: there is a special leather keepsake for the FTF and a nice geocoin for the trading.

Thanks matildamay for the help.

Congratulations to Sharknose Bunnies, Seeingitdifferent, and 3humps on the quick FTF!
