Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates!

This cache is the final once you have visited all of the other 12
Aldo Leopold Caches. In each geocache, you will find a hint. The
hint refers to the chapter in Aldo Leopold's A Sand County Almanac
that is referred to in the name of the cache (each month.) One must
obtain a copy of the book (from the library or bookstore) and look
up the references to get the coordinates for the final cache. Each
chapter is quite short, so it shouldn't be too hard to find the
answers, though I do suggest you read the whole book! Aldo Leopold:
