Geocache Description:

I know that some of you really like the challenging geocaches, however those who are just beginning the sport may appreciate an easy find. For the old pros, this will be an easy addition to your totals. Covered camoed peanut butter jar.

This cache is located on the El Dorado Trail. It's not the prettiest part of the trail, but it is an easy walk from a small parking lot on the east side of Missouri Flat Road just a little south of Walmart. Since the quality of GPS fixes vary mostly due to relative satellite positions, when determining the coordinates for a cache we hold our receiver still at the location for up to 5 minutes and record the last two digits of the coordinates every 30 seconds, then take an average and standard deviation. ( Each pair of satellites locates you on a circle in space. If the circles of position from multiple pairs intersect at a shallow angle, the solution becomes very sensitive to other factors such as atmospheric effects. Reference Wikipedia for more details.) The coordinate variation when we placed this cache was plus or minus .002 in the arc-minutes of both latitude and longitude, which corresponds to about 12 feet.
