Geocache Description:


White Tailed Deer


Talking with their Tail
While a tan coat helps them blend into woodland shadows, deer display the bright white under their tails to silently signal danger to others nearby.

Antlers Away
Antlers are grown each year from Spring to Fall and are used in defending territories during the mating season.

Smaller Down South
The size of deer decreases the further south you get. Key Deer in the FL Keys stand only 2.5 feet tall.


You are seeking a regular sized ammo can.


This "PHC" cache is one of a 14 part series that leads to a 15th, Final puzzle cache. The inside container lid and log sheet are both marked with a letter=number code, e.g. "A=7". Write down this code from each of the 14 "PHC" caches so you can use them to solve for the coordinates to the final, GC55TJJ. You will need all 14 and you are going to hike a long way to get them, don't forget any! A full listing of all 14 caches may be found on the Puzzle Final page.

This ammo can contains an interpretive card with information about the White Tailed Deer. This card must remain with the container. It is not swag so please do not remove. Thank you
