Geocache Description:

A very quick find before heading up to Max Patch

The cache is NOT located at the listed coordinates; here you will find an information kiosk with information necessary to find the coordinates of the physical cache. Most cachers should be able to find the information (and then the cache) in less than two minutes!

The actual coordinates of the cache are:

N 35° 47. AB 3
W 82° 57. CD 9

A = the sum of the middle two digits of the elevation of Max Patch shown on the map
B = the last digit of the year associated with a landing strip
C = the difference between the two non-zero digits of the year associated with cattle and sheep
D = the difference between the first and last digits of the Max Patch elevation shown on the map

CHECKSUM: A + B + C + D = 20

I highly recommend that you continue up to find the nearby cache and then on to the summit of Max Patch! Great views can usually be found up there!! [Just in case it isn't patently obvious, "MPM" stands for "Max Patch Micro". Enjoy!] [BTW: This hide was my 7,000th caching event -- 5,927 finds and 1,073 hides.]

FTF HONORS GO TO Creek View Two!!!
