Encore Oncor Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

ex135nav: Construction has done this one in. I checked out the area to see if it might be adjusted and given new life, but it had a good life and maybe I will use the technique on a new cache somewhere else.

Geocache Description:

DO NOT LOOK FOR THE CACHE AT THE POSTED COORDINATES.

At the behest of Prime Approver I have raised the terrain to 1.5. While an ambitious wheelchair operator could reach around and over and grab the cache, it would be very difficult for that person to determine where to reach around and over.


The real coordinates can be found using Google Earth (or Google Maps) and the pictures available with the Street View capability. Zoom in quite close to the coordinates given then turn on Street View. Select the yellow fellow and place him at the coordinates and look in the direction specified.

The real coordinates are located at:

N 32 AB.CBA W 97 CD.EFD

A = the first digit on the speed limit sign when looking southwest from ( N 32 41.511 W 97 26.991 )

B = the exit number 1/2 mile away looking south from ( N 32 42.429 W 97 28.512 )

C = the middle digit in the exit number 1/4 mile to the west of ( N 32 41.047 W 97 26.786 )

D = the second digit in the number of feet in height of the overpass looking SE from ( N 32 45.137 W 97 18.919 )

E = middle digit in the route number 1/2 mile to the north of ( N 32 44.174 W 97 19.222 )

If you look just west of south at ( N 32 42.841 W 97 26.714 ) you see something very recognizable. If you see a yellow school bus, F = 3. If you see a red and white target, F = 9. If you see School Zone speed limit sign, F = 7.
