Geocache Description:


Congratulations to BigA800 on reaching his 6000 milestone!!!

This cache is for you, BigA, and to help all of us progress along to our next milestone!

Keep on reaching for those caches!



Although BigA always says that he hates puzzles, a cache is still a cache, right?

The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but it is close.

To find the location of the cache, determine the triangular center point among the 3 traditional caches (GC1B7AM, GC1E20F and GC1QZ8J) that were closest to the posted coordinates at its time of publication.

For purposes of solving this puzzle, please assume that these caches are: the archived "La Grande Plan" (http://coord.info/GC1QZ8J) at N 40° 38.247 W 074° 23.160; the archived "Powdered Donut" (http://coord.info/GC1E20F) at N 40° 38.443 W 074° 23.057; and the archived "Tiny Often Empty Park: Fanwood, NJ" (http://coord.info/GC1B7AM) at N 40° 38.467 W 074° 23.264.

From that triangular center, apply these offsets:

N - 0.018 and W - 0.027
