Welcome to the Sunshine State Geoart series. Each of the caches highlight a specific location in Florida. None of the caches are located at the coordinates listed on the cache pages. You will need to solve the puzzle below in order to obtain the correct coordinates.
All caches are soda bottle preforms containing only a log. You will need your own writing utensil or stamp (no stickers please). All caches are within 30’ of grassy or graded shell rock trails suitable for biking and hiking (unless noted otherwise). Please bring plenty of water and snacks.
Located between Lake City and Jacksonville and bisected by Interstate 10, the Osceola National Forest is Florida's northernmost and smallest national forest. Nearly 200,000 acres are protected by the boundaries of the Osceola National Forest, including several wildneress areas and a wildlife corridor that stretches north towards Georgia and the Okeefenokee Swamp.
The forest was created by Presidential proclamation A = (month #), 10, 19B1
N26° 53.8A9 W80° 11.8B2
