Geocache Description:

This cache was designed for geocachers who would like to do a significant milestone geocache. Are you hitting 1000 finds? 10,000? 200? It doesn't matter- Your journey starts here.Find the bison tube and your first set of coords.Then follow the directions on this page. A driving, epic multi cache which leads to a well-stocked large ammo box. Check out the gallery for schwag photos...

FTF honors goes to Gal and Fuzzy for their no-nonsense, take no bull approach to this mamba jamba of a cache.
STF honors goes to a new cacher who found his 750th cache on this Milestone! Outkast24 is the first to find SOLO on this epic monster.
Way to go both groups !!
Third To find. Hushpadwich !
Milestone: 1. A Stone set up beside a road to mark the distance in miles to a particular place.
2. An action or event to mark a significant change or stage in development.

I was recently at an event where the topic came up that no one puts out Multi-caches anymore. In the same conversation, someone asked about a Large geocache I had recently archived. This person needed it for a challenge he was doing. So I thought, how about a Large, Multi, 5/5 milestone cache? Well, here it is…
Ten days were spent collecting coordinates and another ten to twenty days were spent doing the math.
I would think that this cache can’t be done in one day… but I have been wrong before. There are Many , many great geocaches along the route, some of them classics. Stop and get a couple! ( if you aren’t racing to be the FTF !!! FTF gets $20.00 cash and a trackable NJ Devil coin. There are four more coins for the next four groups. Toys, some cool rock and roll pictures, some signature items.
** You will need to print out a CURRENT copy of the cache page. ( like old school ) or if you have a SMART phone with EXCELLENT coverage and internet service) HINT: Just print the page, trust me.

TO BEGIN : You should have gone to the posted coordinates already and received the coordinates from the bison tube. If you have traveled to the coordinates:

When you find this chained item, take the date and subtract 1817 from it to give you last three of the new west coordinate(just use 2013 for now).
N 39° 55.107 W 075° 07.XXX This will give you a new number as well, take this one and subtract 1140 from it to give you the last three of the new west coordinate.
N 39° 53.727 W 075° 07.XXX The fine here can be no more than XXX? Add this to 663 to give you the last three coordinates of the north coordinate.
N 39° 52.XXX W 075° 07.598 When you see this sign, it will give you instructions. How many steps are there? X=? Multiply this number by 10 and add 2.

N 39° 51.698 W 075° XX.429 Green sign. Take the number, add 39 to it for the middle north coordinate and add 9 to it to get the west coordinate.
N 39° XX.880 W 075° XX.907 The numbers after 609 and before 0500 on sign= XXX Subtract 970 from this to get the last two of the north coordinate.
N 39° 44.0XX W 075° 28.536 Telephone Pole. Numbers before ’s’. Take the four digit number and subtract 3491 to give you the last three coordinates in the north coordinates.
N 39° 40.XXX W 075° 30.652 You can be fined up to XXXX? Take that number and subtract 325 from it to get the last three digits of the north coordinate
N 39° 39.XXX W 075° 31.251. When you pull up here , it will be easy to spot the year this was donated. Subtract 1049 from this number to give you the last three coordinates of the west coordinate. Subtract 1976 from the same number to give you the middle two numbers for the north coordinate.
N 39° XX.892 W 075° 31.XXX When is it they don't want you here? Take those two numbers, add them together, multiply by two and add 6. That is used for the middle north numbers. Take those same two numbers, add them together again, multiply by two and add 3 for the middle west numbers.
N 39° XX.631 W 075° XX.327 This is one of my favorite spots. Solitude. On the regulations sign, the directors phone number’s last three digits will send you on your way. Take them and subtract 126 for the north’s last three digits.
