Geocache Description:

These 3 Night Caches are hidden for the Moga Event but will remain here indefinitly. You are going to need a Flashlight and a pen. Other than that, just the usual things you would carry with you to any Geocache. This cache does require some off-trail hiking and a small stream crossing but the terrain is mostly open woods with minor under growth. <h1 style="color:blue;"> Use of Sight-N-Go Waypoint Projection Required! See Below. 


The name of this cache is taken from my first night cache " Nocturnal Pursuit of the Smokin' Burrito " GC3E1K9 if 4.5 terrain is your kind of a cache, then I recommend this one to you. At this time it is 94% Favorited.The name also is honoring 4 of my friends: Ground FOX, jeepSTAFF, and 2 TURTLES___. <p>

 

This cache begins at the listed parking with a 30' wide blacktop trail across the flats. Turn right at edge of woods and the Trailhead is at the Mystery Symbol, from here you WILL need that FlashLight. Hint- Due to private property with Farm Animals close by shortly into the trail, I will tell you to turn LEFT at the top of the first hill. PLEASE DON'T SHINE LIGHTS TOWARD THE ANIMALS we don't want to spook them or alarm the residents. If you see anyone in your group doing this Please REMIND them NOT TO. Thank You. <p>

Breadcrumbs ( fire Tacks ):

Single eyes = continue the general direction you are heading <p>

Double eyes - an abrupt change in direction <p>

 Double eyes moving = Cridder, do not follow <p>

Triangle eyes = Sight-N-Go needed. Project Waypoint 145' @ 167˚ degrees <p>

Due to the area having hunting open at times during the year and many hunters in this area knowing about the use of these trails, I am including Sight-N-Go's on each of the night caches to refrain from leading muggles to the prize. They will say " Why would anyone want to come here at night " and be very confused. Only those reading this paragraph will understand and have the ability to find the final. If you have never done this before, I'm sure someone near you has, so it is a GREAT TIME TO LEARN and it is pretty easy, and will help you on future geocaches when you are alone.
