There are
strange things going on in the Conroy pit. It has been reported
that groups of people have been spotted walking around with little
electronic devices who seem to "disappear" into the woods and then
appear again as if by magic. It's said there is strange hidden
treasure in these woods or maybe it is just a hiding spot for
aliens. Your mission should you choose to accept it, is to find out
just what it is these people (aliens) are looking for. Good
Luck.
| The Conroy Triangle cache is not at the listed coordinates but
if you are walking your dog in the area the green garbage can at
this location might be very useful.

You will
be required to find three points of a triangle. All can be accessed
from within the Conroy Pit walking area. In total it is about 5 KM
if you walk the full distance. For the most part all points can be
reached from established paths with a short bushwhack at the end as
you approach them. All tags are in plain view at eye
height.
From the
listed cache coordinates (you should not have to go there to do
this but you can if you like) find the first point by making a
projection of 195 Mils at a distance of 513 meters. All projections
are in True North.
At point 1
you will find a tag with two numbers. The first number is the
direction in Mils and the second is the distance in meters to Point
2.
At point 2
you will find two tags with three numbers. The first number is the
direction in Mils and the second is the distance in meters to Point
3. Remember the third number and call it (A).
At point 3
you will find a tag with one number. Remember this number and call
it (B).
The cache
is at a bearing of (A) Mils from the Circumcenter and at a bearing
of (B) Mils from the Incenter of the triangle.
Now make
the projections and go and grab the cache.
Give
yourself a big pat on the back if you complete all the calculations
in the field using your GPSr only.
