Geocache Description:

County Road Cache


The coordinates listed for this cache are not its actual location. To determine the actual location you will need some info

In front of the county court house located in Paint Rock, TX, there is a plaque dedicated to a man who was a state senator. Using the first letter of his first name as a number (i.e. A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.), substitute this number for X to solve the following.

Starting Position = N 31° 2(X+4).715 W 099° (4X-3)2.620

From the starting position, count (X+3) red metal fence posts to the west.

I've put a bunch of Wheat Pennies and a few collectible coins in the cache. FYI, I've checked all the Wheat Pennies value. None are rare, which means none are worth more than about a dime.
