Imaginary Little Circles Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Pokaroo: Well the imaginary little circle around GZ has been destroyed so it is time to let this cache slip into Neverland. I trust all who wanted to attempt this cache have done so. Thanks to all who took the time and made the effort to track this cache down. Pokaroo and Sadie Too

Geocache Description:


On “The Conroy Triangle” (GC23MNR)many commented on how much fun it was to use some of the features on their GPSr. This cache has a similar flavour. Hope you enjoy it.

From the posted coordinates there is an imaginary line that runs TN 2576 Mills (144.9 Degrees) for a distance of 830 meters. On this imaginary line (or within a couple of meters of it) there are a number of similar circular objects. You will need to walk the line and find all of them.

Warning: Do not cross over the railway tracks. If you want to go on the other side of the tracks there is an underpass at the waters edge.

Let the number of circular objects be (A). When you find the second circular object, count the number of full squares (B).

There exists another parallel imaginary line with imaginary circular objects located in the same positions along the line at a distance of (A X B X 3.046) Meters from the original imaginary line.Now you must find the right imaginary circle on the right imaginary line and go there.  At this location you will find a copper tag marked with a big red ribbon and Fire Tacks for night time caching, that will lead you to the cache.

Give yourself a big pat on the back if you complete all the calculations in the field using your GPSr only.

The geochecker will tell you if your calculations have brought you within 30 meters of the final redirect.
