Geocache Description:

Once you've collected the codes from the 33 WNW caches, you'll be able to use them to discover the locations of 3 bonus hides, including this one.


You’ve found all 33 of the WNW hides?  You remembered to jot down the 33 codes you found in those hides?  Super!  You’re now ready to use 9 of those codes—the ones prefaced with “B35”—to determine the actual location of this particular bonus cache.  You’ll be using the 9 alpha/numeric codes prefaced with B35 to discover, first, a word relevant to this trail, which will then allow you to determine all the coordinates for the hide.  (You'll be starting with N 39 3?.??? W 77 ??.??? for this bonus cache.)   Remember to use the remaining codes to determine the locations of the other 2 bonus caches.

By the way, in your log, perhaps you’ll share a thought or two about what’s in YOUR geokit.  What’s the most basic tool of the trade you never leave home without?  What’s your most unusual geo-TOTT?  For these 3 bonus caches, YOU VEE-ry well may want to ensure you're fully prepared to cope with all sorts of lighting needs.  There’s ample parking near each bonus's GZ, but, as always in geocaching, please be stealthy and respectful of private property.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
