Geocache Description:

This is a mystery cache. The listed coordinates are NOT for the final cache, but it marks a place I've driven by a bazillion times over the years. You've probably driven by there too. Don't go to these coordinates. The actual cache is within 2 miles of these coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below to determine the final coordinates.

Cleveland - Xenia - Louisville
Ellicott City - Charlotte - Pensacola
Van Horn - New Orleans - Jacksonville Beach
Derby Line - West Springfield - New Haven
International Falls - KC - Texarkana - Krotz Springs
Yellowstone NP - Rochester - Chicago
East Greenbush - Killington - Portsmouth
Memphis - Americus - Zelienople - Erie

You are looking for a medium sized plastic container, hidden within 15' of the trail. Please take care to replace the cache in such a way that the cache is hidden naturally and not visible from the trail!

The cache is located between a couple pieces of conservation land, each with well marked trailheads and parking, and each providing access to this cache.

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.

Congratulations to Bigrock(Eastport-San Luis) and gw(Fort Kent-Key West)(Columbia-Mobile) for being FTF!
