Geocache Description:

Celebrating 1000 caches in a 10-mile radius of my house.  Initially, this would've been the 1001st cache, but a removed cache bumped this back to 1000.

It is strongly advised that you figure out this puzzle before you head out into the field.  The cache is NOT at the starting posted coordinates.  Rather, a projection is made from that point, which leads to the physical cache.  The puzzle is figuring out the degree and distance (in feet) for the projection.  Best of luck- there is public parking near the final.

Trying adjusting the final digits to get geochecker to work, should allow answers within 25 ft.
