This is the extreme north end of the Maumee State Forest, off Manore Road. The above coordinates take you to the beginning point, and below are directions to locate the cache through 3 legs of the hunt. It isn't a very long walk, but does require some basic letterboxing skills, and an ability to project directions and distances with your GPS unit. You could also be successful with a compass and some type of distance measuring device, but a GPS would be the best way. You could attempt to plot it all out ahead of time and take a line directly to the cache, but you wouldn't save much walking and you would cheat yourself out of a nice little adventure.
First of all DO NOT go north of N41 32.726. That is all private property and is marked as such. Stay on and/or south of the marked forest service road until you find point #2. There is plenty of good off-road parking, be sure not to block the forest service road.
The beginning point is the service road sign at the above coordinates. Walk a bearing of 271 degrees true for a distance of 150 Roman paces to point 2. You might want to determine what a Roman pace is before you start. From point 2, walk a bearing of 185 degrees true for a distance of 71 Roman paces to point 3. This will take you to a row of short pine stumps to both your right and left. At point 3, look about you and find an area where the pines are letting in some sunlight and non-pine stuff is growing. You will find the treasure at a distance of 47.5 Roman paces.
You're looking for a full size cache container. In addition to the normal geocaching log and a bunch of trade items, it also contains a letterboxing stamp book, a Red Dragon stamp, and stamp pad. Please do not take these items, as they are used by the letterboxing geocachers to mark their letterbox stamp book. It is not necessary to letterbox the cache, but everyone must sign the regular geocaching logbook.
The cache was originally stocked with some decent trade items. Please trade up or even, no geo-junk please.
