Geocache Description:


Cache is not at the posted coordinates. This is a Letterbox Hybrid.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE STAMP!  Stamp is handmade, but not carved.

Warning: There is hunting in the area so make sure to wear blaze orange during hunting season.

 

Well, better late than never. Since I had the stamp already made, but no time to place it before Christmas, I'm early for next year. Never too soon to get working on moving off the naughty list and over to the nice side. The original plan was to place this in an area with a nice little walk and I would provide you with letter boxing clues, however I had to place it closer to home. The trails her are so intertwined that there was no way I could give you any sort of clue that would help you find the box. You'll be lucky to find the correct trail. I will say that there is a trail that leads you all but 100 feet of the way.

Near the posted coordinates you will find a sign on a hungry tree on the north side of the trail. This sign has two times listed. We will only use the numbers before the “:” and will ignore the zeros. Assume the first time listed is A and the second is B, and solve for the last three numbers of N and W. Use simple substitution, no multiplication required.

Find the letterbox hybrid at the following location: N41 54.9 A W71 32.2 (B+1) 2
