Geocache Description:

You use triangulation every time you turn on your GPSr. But, do you really know how to triangulate? To best find this cache, you will first find three other geocaches and use the information provided to triangulate the position of this cache.

I have placed three other geocaches that will lead you to this cache. They are;
Triangulate from Chicago GC2585M
Triangulate from "Mt" Everest GC258VD
Triangulate - X Marks the Spot GC398TJ


You may have to learn to triangulate to find this cache, or you could wander around until the distances to those three caches are all correct. That is where you will find this cache. A map of the Wausau & Vicinity will be most helpful, as well as a drafting compass.


I have tried to allow for some slight errors in calculation, and can tell you to look for parking approximately 1/4 mile directly south of the cache. You are looking for an ammo box, on the ground. There is additional information in the hint, that will pinpoint the cache once you get to the area.


There is an envelope for each of the first three finders, as well as souvenir laminated cards for any additional finders of this cache.
