Geocache Description:

The cache is at the posted coordinates, but you must meet the qualification listed below in order to log a successful find.

This is one in a series of Latitude/Longitude challenges that's designed for cachers who are lucky enough to travel the world.

For these challenges, virtual caches and earthcaches cannot be used to meet the qualifications, only caches which have a physical log will be allowed.

In order to log a successful find, you must find two caches that are separated by at least 150 degrees of longitude - only the whole degrees of the longitude should be used. The two caches can be at any latitude as long as they meet the longitude qualification.

Special consideration needs to be taken when calculating the degree differential, it must be the shortest distance between the two caches, this really applies if you are using one with a West Coordinate and one with an East Coordinate. W 170 and E 170 are only 20 degrees apart.

All past finds count and there is no date restriction.

A sample of qualification would be:

GCM8PZ - Jack the Ripper 7 - Jack's Hideaway - W 00
GC63EC - Talkeetna Treasure - W 150 ---- 150 degrees

- or -

GC2DZY8 - Peter and Paul Fortress - E 030
GC223Z5 - X Lake - W 150 ---- 180 degrees

Cache is only available sunrise to sunset and is placed in compliance with Fairfax County's Pre-Approved park list.
