Geocache Description:

Welcome to the final cache of the Lucky Horseshoe Series!  This cache is NOT at the listed coordinates.


To find the mystery cache you will have to write down the number that is written somewhere on the containers of each of the 15 traditional caches of the Lucky Horseshoe Series.  In most cases, the number is on the inside of the lid.  Then sequence those numbers according to the numerical order of each of the caches.  For example, #1 of the series has the first number of the mystery coordinate, #2 of the series has the second number of the coordinate, and so on.  

Although you do not have to have four wheel drive to access the caches, take care in driving as some trails are better than others.

For those of you who may be wondering what the title of this cache means, you have to know a little about us.  Years ago, whenever we went on vacation, it seemed that something bad happened.  For example, a torrential down pour in Washington, D.C. that temporarily shut down the subway system as well as the Smithsonian that we wanted to visit and Hurricane Iniki when we were in Hawaii our first (and only) time, come to mind.  When these things, or anything else bad happened, we always said it was caused by the “Priesterluck.”  Priesterluck has stuck with us ever since as a tongue in cheek way of saying bad luck.  By the way, we seem to have gotten over our “Priesterluck” and now have wonderful vacations!
