Geocache Description:


This is our first attempt at placing a multi, but in doing so we decided to make it a mystery cache and have you guys work for it. The only reason we bumped this one up to a 4 is because it will more than likely require more than one trip, otherwise its more like a 2-3. Obviously the coordinates are not the location of the final cache, but they will get you started.
