Geocache Description:

This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.


I applied my own criteria to the task of ranking some of the scariest eight-legged arachnids, resulting in the list you see below. While their features are quite impressive, these spiders do not appreciate why I’ve assigned the values I have. If you think like I do, you will be able to locate the cache and sign the log.   


SPI-DER (spi' der) n. 1. any of numerous predaceous arachnids of the order Araneae (Araneida), most of which spin webs that serve as nests and as traps for prey.

Assume N 45 and W093.

 

Goliath Birdeater Tarantula

Zebra spider + 1

Giant Huntsman spider + 4

Wolf spider + 4

Brazilian wandering spider + 1

Mouse spider +7

Six-eyed sand spider + 3

Sydney funnel-web spider +3

Golden Silk Orb-weaver – 5
