Geocache Description:

A multi cache that will introduce you to alternative forms of travel.
Park your car and get busy. Total distance traveled should be about 3 miles or so.

This cache is along a nice bike path that The Boys and I used this past summer to ride our bikes to the Oregon Zoo. Yes, you can ride your bike or walk all the way from Cedar Hills to the zoo without ever being on the freeway or having to be in the street. Sometimes you have a wide path away from vehicles and for other sections there is a sidewalk.

As for the cache, there are 3 waypoints and a final location.
All 4 locations are on the south side of the path. The waypoints are all magnetic.

Here are the details for using the information found at each location:

Waypoint 1: Add/Subtract the numbers provided to the posted coordinates of the cache page (this is explained on the note in the magnetic key holder you are looking for).

Waypoint 2: The "container" here does not need to be moved. The information is available on the outside. There is no need to move the container. There is no note here, but you are to add/subtract as indicated to the coordinates of your current position.

Waypoint 3: Same type of "container" as waypoint 2. The difference is that you will use the information directly from the container as the minutes portion of the final coordinates. In other words, the final coordinates are what is listed but without the degree values "45" and "122" for the Lat/Lon.
Please do not try to remove the container from it's location. I don't want anyone getting hurt! You may need to take a step or two off the trail to the south in order to get a good look. You may need to look 40-50 feet west of the coordinates to find this waypoint.

Final: Small container. This is the first time during the hunt that you'll need to leave the trail in order to find what you're looking for. The cache is within inches of the trail.
