This cache was hidden to bring to light the Romani Gypsies. It is well hidden high on the hillside in a Wildlife safety zone. You will have to do some research to obtain coordinates to the cache, then prepare yourself for a good hike.
Parking is on Eager Rd, just under the bridge in the lot on the right. Follow the old road along the tracks, then follow it up into the woods. There are posted signs nearby, but you will not need to cross them.
The actual cache coordinates are:
42.AB.CDE
076.FG.HIJ
AB = How many spokes are in the wagon wheel that appears on the Romani Gypsy flag? Take that number, muliply it by three and add six.
CD = In what year did the Nuremberg laws strip the Romani people in Nazi Germany of their citizenship? Take the last 2 digits of this year, double them then add 13.
E = In what year did the Italian government declare that Italy's Romani population represented a National Security Risk? Take the last digit of this year and subtract seven.
FG = In what year was the Gypsy Lore Society founded? Take the last two digits and subtract 84 from them.
HI = What year was the book, "We Borrow the Earth" written? Take the last 2 digits and add 46.
J = For how many days is the Romani Mother considered "Impure" after childbirth? The last digit in that number will be J..
Now you have your answer, go find the cache! Follow the trail up and then bushwhack up the hill. Good luck!! **Note - Cache may be up to 100 feet from the answer that you come up with, but use your head and you should be able to find it**
