Geocache Description:

So you want to make a SLAM DUNK for a smiley?


This easy to find / hard to get to geocache is just waiting for you.
I'm not a great basketball player even though I'm 6' 4" and go about 250... But this easy puzzle will lead you right to the foul line, then all you need to do is make the shot.
Here is the question:

The regulation height of the hoop in high school/college/pro basketball is _______ feet

To get the final coordinates multiply your answer by 10 and subtract this number from each of the above North and West cords (after the decimal place). Although it may be possible to do the cache alone with special equipment, teamwork is encouraged.


NOTE: the log on this cache must be signed with a sharpie to qualify as found. A single member of a team may sign for individual team members. A container with "sharpies" for signing is hidden within a few feet of the cache. Feel free to post pictures of your adventure.


Congrats to Aquacache, pbump and SSPG for their FTF!
