Geocache Description:

A quick test of how observant you are, if you are observant. Otherwise, possibly a frustrating stroll through the woods!

Cache is in a camouflaged coolwhip container.

The cache is NOT at the coordinates listed.
Instead, they are the starting point for the hunt.


Congratulations to workerofwood who was first to find and scored this "AWESOME" ribbon:


Total walking distance: less than 1/2 mile, if you go straight to the cache, or somewhat more if you take the wrong path and have to backtrack. Good luck!

P.S. All bearings are based on TRUE North. Some tips on using a compass.
