Geocache Description:


The coordinates of this cache are not the actual coordinates!


This cache will take you on a tour of Freestone Park in Gilbert, Arizona. This is a nice park with much to offer.

The real coordinates of the cache are in the following code:

N 33 21.ABC W 111 45.DEF

To find the values of A, B, C, D, E and F you will have to go to each of the following locations around the park and look for a number on a "nearby" sign.

Location A - N 33 21.452 W 111 46.357
Find a label on a utility box in the form "P0A05".

Location B - N 33 21.448 W 111 45.948
Find a sign in the form "3BB Ft.".

Location C - N 33 21.517 W 111 46.151
C = the number of languages on the sign.

Location D - N 33 21.628 W 111 45.931
Find on a sign "Closes at D:30 pm".

Location E - N 33 21.449 W 111 46.010
Find on a sign "Ages 2 to E".

Location F - N 33 21.500 W 111 46.371
Find a label on a utility box in the form "2309F2".

By the way, if you visit the A-F locations in order, you will do more walking than necessary. A good place to park is near location D and find the locations in the order D-B-E-A-F-C. According to my TOPO! software, visiting the locations in that order, going to the final location, and going back to the parking area near D is a walk of about 1.25 miles.

The location of the actual cache is in an area that is either very busy or deserted. If there are lots of people in the area, do not try to find the cache.

This is a micro cache. The container is a black plactic, magnetic 'Hide-a-Key' case. It contains a log paper and a short pencil, but it would be a good idea to bring a pencil with you. Please do not try to leave anything for exchange.

The final coordinates will position you in an area near the cache, but not exactly at the cache. You will need to look around for hiding places. The cache is not in plain sight, but is easily reached. It is in a place that no one should accidently find it unless major repairs are done. If it proves too difficult to find, I'll supply more clues.

The cache is generally wheel chair accessible. Each of the A-F locations are along sidewalks or in grassy areas. A couple are up slight hills. The final cache is probably easier to reach from a wheelchair.

For those of you who enjoy caching at night, this is not a bad one to try in the dark. The park officially closes around 10:30pm. Most of the sidewalks are well lit, but it wouldn't hurt to have a flashlight to help read the signs. There is also some lighting near the final cache to aid in your searches.

Please Note: Be careful to return the cache to the location where you found it. The cache container should be 'along the edge'. If the cache is moved just a few inches, the difficulty becomes considerably higher and will draw more attention to someone trying to retrieve it.
