Geocache Description:


A night time only 3 stage multi-cache. Flashlights required.

The coordinates given are for the first micro.  Inside you will find the coordinates for the parking area where you will start the search for part two.  The same goes for that micro.

Once at the new parking area(s) you will be looking for a small white (square) reflector in the woods.  When you have located it, you will then be looking for and following yellow (round) fire tacks.  Ignore all (round) white, green or blue tacks, they are put there by hunters.  The final tack in a run will be red, when you find it start looking.  Micro #2 is located on steep rocky terrain and is fixed in place.  Please do not remove it, simply unscrew the cap and fish out the coordinates.   

Before leaving the car, mark it on your GPS with a waypoint so you can find your way back.  There are NO tacks to help you back to the car. All of the micros and the final are laid out to the north side of the access road, so if you do get lost head south toward the road.

Suggested Equipment:

 Safety Glasses-  These are very important, please do not attempt this cache without them.
 Flashlight- The brightest one you can find.
 Backup flashlight(s) with spare bulbs and batteries.
 GPSr with spare batteries.
 Compass- In case you get lost.
 Boots- remember, steep rocky terrain.
 Printout of this page.
All the other essentials a smart hiker/skier/snowshoer should carry.
Please replace the final as found.  It is near a trail and I don't want it seen in the daylight, thank you.
Be careful! Hiking in the woods at night can be dangerous.  Have fun and be safe.
