Geocache Description:


The Orillia Anchor Series was placed by puzzle loving members of the Central Ontario Geocachers. The geocache is not at the posted coordinates, but somewhere within Orillia. You will need to solve the puzzle below to find the geocache! Enjoy!

To find the cache from the given coordinates you would have to travel 1.561350nm on an azimuth of 108.046722*.

 

To do this with the accuracy required you will not likely be able to use you GPS.

 

I suggest u open something FIZZY and CALCulate the cache coordinates using the information provided.

The purpose of this puzzle is to introduce geocachers to a valuable tool that can be used for accurate azimuth and distance calculations, projections, coordinate conversions as well as other useful functions.  This tool should be in every cacher’s box of tricks.
