Geocache Description:

  The cache is not at the posted coordinates. 


Do not be deterred. This search is a double-header, presented as a fairly straightforward two-stage search.

Phase One: First you must find Benchmark AD7121, Herb 2. Finding it seems to be difficult for some, so here is a hint: Go to the Your Profile/Quick View page and click on "View nearby benchmarks." Now find benchmark AD7121 and CAREFULLY read the Documented History (by the NGS) narrative, especially the last three sentences! These sentences are the ones that pertain to HERB A-2. It is an easy find at the location described.  Once you have found it, do not forget to log your Find on geocaching.com.


Phase Two: Step 1  -  Stand at benchmark Herb 2 and obtain a waymark with a good Lat/Lon position. Now project the waymark 150 degrees for a distance of 0.18 miles (950 feet).

                  Step 2  -  Now go the the projected waymark and search for the cache.
