Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the posted coordinates. Don't go there, you'll just get your feet wet.

This can be an easy-squeezy mystery cache with a quick find -or not. To obtain the correct coordinates, study the 4 photos below and find a common non-hyphenated compound word shared by all the photos. Take the numerical value of each letter in that word (A=1, Z=26, etc), add them up, and subtract that total number from these coordinates:

N41 28.026 W083 59.368

Now go find it. There's the rub. It might be a nice little jaunt in the country, or it may turn into a nightmare. The terrain rating takes into account the path that one must take to get there. It could be easy, or it could be tough, that all depends on the local weather/road conditions at the time. TR would vary from 2.0 to 4.5, so I made it a 3.5. I have calculated this one to be a little tougher on the FTFer because I submitted it for publication during a nasty snow/ice storm that was in the cache area. He/she will probably earn that FTF if they attempt this one without the proper equipment to get in and out of the area. Don't call me to come tow you out. Summer and fall will be an easier time for the more timid folks. Container is a decon box (not the commercial kind with a picture of a rat on the outside, the OTHER decon box...). Please make sure the lid is snapped tight after signing the log.

Oh, and do not go off the road right-of-way. Active pheasant hunting facility on both sides of the road. Once you get there, the find should be easy.
