Geocache Description:

Well?

Can you take a hint?

I sure hope so!





OK, so here's the deal. I made this cache a nice little home in what I think is a neat area off the Yough River Bike Trail / Great Allegheny Passage. But, I had a heck of a time getting coordinates for the cache!

I don't know if it was the dense tree cover or the steep hillside (you have been warned!) that was causing all of my troubles...

All I know is, the reception is not very good in this spot!

Honestly, I spent HOURS trying to come up with a decent set of coords! It was starting to get late and it was time to head home, so these coords were the best I could do!

Soooo, I strongly suggest that you decrypt the hint and take this information along with you on your quest for this cache!!!

I would also like to ask that you post in your log the coordinates that you get at the cache site!

...if you are lucky enough to find it!



I added a few waypoints that you may find helpful,
or at least somewhat interesting.

There is a bench located across the trail from the cache site. It's a nice little place to take a break.

There are also some cool boulders along the river's edge, just a couple of hundred feet down river from the cache site. This is also a nice place to take a little break and maybe do a little rock hopping!

I've included some coords for these boulders as well as the trailhead for the path leading from the bike trail down to this area.

There is also an old tram road leading from this path over to the cache site, if you are lucky enough to stumble upon it!

This may or may not make the hunt for this cache easier...

Have fun and be careful!
