Geocache Description:




You have heard of the Indian or the larger African elephant.  Elephants epitomize all of our concepts of power, all of our ideas of size, but few of our ideas of agility. 
 
If I’ve ever been amazed by an elephant, it was when I saw a bull charging some jeeps, even though he was off balance.  Since then I never waiver in my respect as I gaze romantically at these marvelous beasts.
The newest of an elephant clan provided some humor as it tottered on shaky legs.  I laughed at its awkwardness, then I nearly fell off my chair as it somehow, with re-energized legs, was able to stand.  When it began to run on its strengthened legs, even teens nearby began to amaze, roaring their approval at the baby’s progress.  The infant went yippy-skippy down the trail – the most excited calf I’ve ever seen.
If you ever need to carve an elephant from wood, just cut away anything that doesn’t look like an elephant.
 


Once you solve the puzzle, add 1.019 to North and add 0.005 to West to get final coordinates. Use the adjusted coordinates in geochecker
