Geocache Description:

The only thing that Team Wolverine likes as much as geocaching is woodworking. Nothing is better than spending a day in the garage creating something that overshot the budget by at least a $100. This cache can be found in Vesey Park.

This geocache will require you to locate two stages. The first stage can be found at the above coordinates and consists of a piece of lumber and a tape measurer. The board contains a set of coordinates for the final stage minus a few numbers. That’s where the tape measurer comes in. Your task requires you to make two measurements of the board to find the last two numbers to the final stage. The north coordinates can be found by measuring the length (the longer side) and the west coordinates can be found by measuring the width (the shorter side). It will be very important that you measure correctly, otherwise you will not be able to find the actual cache location. Team Wolverine is also very particular about our tools. Be sure to measure with the tape measurer provided. Another thing, while it is a wooded area, both stages can be found just off the trails or clearings. There is no need for extensive bushwacking, though you may have to cross a creek. You could use the bridge to cross the creek, but you know your shoes are thirsty. If you follow the trail near the parking coordinates, you’ll get to cross an old bridge and get the full ambiance of the cache. Your final coordinates should take you north of the stage one location. If you go another direction, you measured wrong. There is no need to enter private property to find the final stage. Happy Hunting
