Geocache Description:

Landmarks, the sequel

On popular demand by NoVAGO cachers.


Note: The cache is NOT at the above coordinates. It marks the trailhead and recommended parking.

The trail is close to the back of a nearby residential neighborhood. To avoid drawing negative attention to this and surrounding caches, please refrain from going after this cache at night.

The solution to finding the location of this cache is to identify the landmarks in the below pictures and to extract the DEGREES LATITUDE and LONGITUDE of those landmarks. (Treat all values as positives, irrelevant if they are N / S / E or W) Then puzzle them together as per the formulas, and presto, you're ready for evince.

Congratulations to:
- Reedkickball for the FTF. Solving the puzzle at night and then consulting the sunrise charts to avoid breaking the cache rules but still arrive first. Impressive stuff. Way to go!
- My buddy Ludozone who made his 600th find here Sep 7th 2007.
