Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the listed coordinates, but it is within 323 feet, the accuracy you could expect 10 years ago before Selective Availability was turned off.
This is a family friendly cache. The hint will give away everything but the direction you need to go. Some will guess right and pick this one up in two minutes. Others will take longer.

"The decision to discontinue Selective Availability is the latest measure in an ongoing effort to make
GPS more responsive to civil and commercial users worldwide…This increase in accuracy will allow
new GPS applications to emerge and continue to enhance the lives of people around the world."
President Bill Clinton
May 1, 2000

And so it began...
