This multicache was installed in the Summer of 2016 as part of an Eagle Scout project. It is a renovated compass course with GPS coordinates added so it can also be used as GPS course. The original compass course was installed in 1998.
The geocache was added to encourage more people to visit the Park.
This is a long but simple multicache if you use GPS coordinates. Coordinates to the starting point are given. Each point provides the coordinates for the next location. The 21st location is the geocache. Coordinates were professionally surveyed so they should be very accurate.
Lanktree Land Surveying of Auburn, Washington volunteered an entire Sunday in July 2016 to survey all 21 locations and provide accurate GPS coordinates.
For a greater challenge use a map and compass to move from point to point. Maps are available at the booth as your enter the park or can be downloaded from http://www.troop480.com/flaminggeyserstatepark
Ranger Charles Andrade oversaw and approved the construction, installation and completion of the course and geocache. The location of all waypoints were ultimately decided by Washington State Parks.
