Geocache Description:

DO NOT GO TO THE COORDINATES ABOVE. THE CACHE IS NOT THERE

Another in the GZ series. To find this cache you need to find the GC location for Vernon, CT and project a waypoint 104' bearing 215° from N. You need not cross the fence to find this cache and it might be good to do some HW and figure out the final coords before leaving the house.

*** Update. Due to a recent GC change the easiest way to get gz is to use "Add/Edit Insta-Notify Subscription" with the zip code function. This is a premium feature and I hope this may encourage more to subscribe. There is a way to get the same result without using this feature, but you will need to figure this out yourself.

You are looking for a camoed bottle I think it might have been a float of some sort, but its about the size of a (3) oz nalgene bottle. There is room for small TBs and micro-geocoins, but thats about it. Please bring your own pen to sign the log. Also depending on the approach, you may need to cross a busy road so please be careful.

Special thanks to skippermark for bringing the first GZ cache to CT GCYXBB: Ground Zero - Cedar Mountain , and helping me with this One (again… someday I will figure these things out).
