Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at above coordinates! These coordinates will take you just a short distance down the road from the last cache to a Benchmark!

SAVE GAS. Park it and Walk it!

Benchmarks are survey markers or other items placed by the National Geodetic Survey, a branch of NOAA. "NOAA's National Geodetic Survey (NGS) defines and manages a national coordinate system. This network, the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), provides the foundation for transportation and communication; mapping and charting; and a multitude of scientific and engineering applications."

Benchmarks are huntable markers on geocaching.com and can be logged much the same as a cache is. So, yes you will be able to log this Benchmark as a "Found" Benchmark too! There are 15 logs for this Benchmark ~ I wonder if there is a way to tell which Benchmark has the most logs??

*Remember: "When uploading images (for Benchmarks), you can put the station's Designation (name, not PID) as well as its State and location in the "Name:" field - it makes the benchmark gallery more interesting." (from: Benchmark Hunting on Geocaching.com)

~~~For this Benchmark the Name is ##C LEYDEN TWP, IL, Northlake.(corner Wolf & Fullerton)

*A simple math equation will take you from the Benchmark to the Final:

North coordinates: * 54.733 + .0(# on Benchmark) = N41 54.???

West coordinates: * 54.188 + .0(# on Benchmark) = W087 54.???

These coordinates will bring you to the "Dash for Cash" Final!

*Please use caution with children by the water! Have Fun!
