Geocache Description:

LOG REPLACEMENT:These caches' logs are starting to fill up - I'd be really appreciative if on the trek around to seek these, someone could 'bulk replace' the logs (even if they aren't quite full) and save the old ones to give to me at some point.
Let me know if you are able to do this for me as it will save me the walk around (again) and I can find some more caches instead ;)

This is one of 20 caches laid out in a geoart picture of a star. This series is called the Cache Constellation. There are some paths around you can follow for sections of the walk and at other times you may encounter some forest bashing including some undelightful patches of Blackberries and stepping over fallen trees. The terrain is usually fairly flat.

Arcturus
Arcturus is the brightest star in the constellation Boötes and the northern celestial hemisphere. With a visual magnitude of −0.04, it is the fourth brightest star in the night sky. It is a relatively close star at only 36.7 light-years from Earth. Arcturus achieved fame when its light was used to open the 1933 Chicago World's Fair. The star was chosen as it was thought that light from Arcturus had started its journey at about the time of the previous Chicago World's Fair in 1893 (as the star is 36.7 light years away the light had, actually, started its journey in 1896).
