Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT LOCATED AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES. You will have to enjoy Google Earth (or Google Maps) with the clues below. {Use of Google Maps will make the difficulty rating a bit higher.}

ALSO Approach from the west. DO NOT CROSS THE CABLE WITH THE SIGN THAT SAYS "UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL WILL BE SUBJECT TO ARREST".


Google is constantly updating their images for some areas, so use the timeline function to look at the images when the cache was placed.

Visit the various places below and use the information obtained to solve the location of the final cache.

The cache is located at N 32 AB.CDE W 097 FE.GHE

A. Travel to S 23 02.227 E 119 40.980 If you see an oil spill, A = 7. If you see a mountain top, A = 3. If you see a crater, A = 4.

B. Fly on over to N 36 05.725 W 115 10.558 If you see an airplane, B = 1. If you see a pyramid, B = 5. If you see a camel, B = 0.

C. Let your radio blast as you travel to N 35 01.200 W 106 04.750 Several radio stations and a television station were represented here.(Look at the 11/22/2003 image.) If one of the radio frequencies is 93.3, C = 8. If the television station is channel 6, then C = 2. If one of the radio frequencies is 88.2, then C = 3.

D. Isn't Google Earth amazing? Speaking of mazes, there are lots of mazes caught by the Google Earth cameras. To see another, go to N 51 47.709 E 5 49.365. How many circles are there in this maze. If you see 1, D = 1. If you see 2, D = 8. If you see 9, D = 0.

E. Go down under to New Zeland. ( S 40 06.317 E 175 25.15) Don't be mislead by the maze just to the south. Use the 1/25/2004 image.) If you see an airplane, E = 1. If you see an elephant, E = 2. If you see two clowns, E = 3.

F. On our way back home, stop by Australia. (S 38 24.828 E 144 52.652). That shape is called a trapazoid. If the long size goes East to West, then F = 2. If the long side goes North to South, then F = 1.

G. As we island hop, stop by N 21 31.494 W 158 02.246. Supposedly this is the World's Largest Maze. You could probably answer the question without looking, but check it out. It is quite remarkable. What is the design in the middle of the maze? If it is a hula girl, G = 8. If it is a pineapple, G = 2. If it is a surf board, G = 6.

H. The last thing to look at is closer to home and the resolution isn't that great. Have you been here? (N 32 47.348 W 97 20.717). What is the shape of his maze? If it is rectangular, H = 6, If it is circular, H = 1. If it is triangular, H = 3.

One final reminder: Approach this from the west. It will be a bit longer walk, but less thorny. DO NOT CROSS THE barrier with the sign.
