Geocache Description:


In keeping with the spirit of this cache, it's going to be a true multi again, for the first time in a long time, but with a twist. The posted coordinates are going to remain the same, and are where you will begin. When you get to the coordinates, search for what you see in the first picture shown below. From that spot, you will be able to see the spot shown in the second picture. From there you will be able to see the third, and so on, until you reach the final picture. When you arrive to the final picture, take a compass heading of 100 degrees, and go 40 feet to find the final. Hope you enjoy!

Kudos to Rabbit of Caerbannog of Charlotte NC for the original cache that inspired this idea!



Formerly Sesqui 5 - Team Geddings. It is not necessary to read the history to find this cache.
***A long history of this cache: My goal in adopting this cache was to keep its wonderful history, but due to too many parts being missing, and proximity issues, it was not practical to remake it in its original form. Instead I've preserved all prior descriptions here as an interesting history bit.***
This is a multi-stage cache which requires you to first find Sesqui Three and Sesqui Four to read a clue in each logbook. All caches, including final cache are not too far apart (ie, within walking distance if you know which path to take and where to park. Coordinates above are for the dirt parking lot behind the lake.
In keeping with Team Geddings' love of multi-stage caches, this one requires you to find Sesqui Three and Sesqui Four (thanks elkinsj for hiding those). In each log book, find the entry by Team Geddings on December 1, 2001. At the bottom of each entry, is a five (5) letter word. Combine those words, put a number under each letter, and you can find the final cache. Should be lots of fun.

Clue #1 is in Sesqui Three. Write that word first. Clue #2 is in Sesqui Four. Write that word second. Then under each letter of the now 10 letter and you have letters that correspond to the numbers. The final cache is at

North AC-EC.SEO West RE-KC.BSS



The cache will be found by casual wanderers if not properly concealed after you find it so please take care to put it back carefully and conceal it properly for the next searcher. Thank you.

HISTORY OF THE CACHE (not required reading )

The above are the correct and updated coordinates of the new cache placed on 6-7-03. The original was stolen, lost or buried. The original location was at

North AC-EC.RKE West RE-KC.LOO

If anyone has some extra time and wants to look for it, please do. It was in a small depression next to a bush and tree. The coordinates were correct when placed but when we went to look for it on 6-7-03, there was no depression and lots of trees knocked down so it is possible some machinery was there and dirt was moved? I don't know but I would love to know if someone can find it. How is that for a great cache search, finding one that has disappeared? Anyway, the new Sesqui 5 cache coordinates are above and if you happen to ever find the original Sesqui 5, please let me know.

NOTE - Sesqui 3 is missing. It you want to find Sesqui 5, you have to either decode the clue below or read the visit logs below. My entry of a note in Sept of 2006 mentions it and another log near that has even more information. I could just tell you the words but that would take all the fun out. Enjoy!
