I have used 2.5 for difficulty because the sat reception at the cache is poor. I took readings equadistant and 70 feet on each side and averaged to get, what should be reasonable location. The hiding spot is pretty typical.
Weyerhaeuser Timber Company operated three camps out of its Vail headquarters camp, starting in 1928. This was one of the worlds largest logging operations, averaging 1,000,000 board feet per day. Their railroad was enormous by logging standards - 98 miles in all, including 26 miles of main line extending from Vail to the tidewater log dump at Woodard Bay, near Olympia. From there the logs were towed by barge or large bundled rafts to the giant Weyerhaeuser mill at Everett. That main line is now mostly paved and is the Chehalis-Western, paved trail that sports a number of geocaches.
