Geocache Description:

This cache is part of what will be a two part set with a bonus cache. It's sister cache will take you to Daniel Boon's Home in Defiance, MO. Both places are about 10 miles apart.    Once you have found both caches, you will be able to find a bonus cache that has been placed between his home and grave locations and will be published soon.

Daniel Boone

The coordinates for this cache will take you to a monument located at the top of the stairs at the burial site.   Parking is across the street and stairs are steep, so please be careful.    There is not a lot of traffic on Boone Monument road, but they can come down the road pretty fast.    Once you have located the monument look to the right and look for a brown cap on the top of a pole. Make note of the the number on the top of the brown cap. Let that number = C. There will be no way to answer this question without visiting the grave site! Please not visit the grave site after dark.   It is a cemetery and thereby off limits after the sun goes down! It should be noted that some feel that Daniel Boone bones were exhumed and reburied back in Kentucky. However, most residents of Missouri feel that wrong set of bones were taken and Daniel Boone bones still lies beneath the Missouri soil.

Now that you have the information you need from the top of the pole, the final coordinates for this stage are:

N 38 (12.357 * C)
W 091 0 (.898 * C)


When you reach the final location, please note the number that is the top of the lid. Keep that number handy and let it = D. You will need this to find the bonus cache. Please bring your own pen to log this cache, as the container is too small to hold one or any swag.
