The container IS very close to the posted coordinates; hundreds of readings were taken and, while everything is relative, the given location has a variance of about 3 feet too far west.
That being said, the proper approach to GZ is critical for discovery... I mean, the appropriate perspective can often be the difference between an FTF and a DNF. You know what I'm preachin' here.
SO, I'll tell ya straight up...
1) Absolutely NO bushwhacking is required.
2) There is no need to disturb the landscaping in ANY way!
3) The container is big enough to hold the log, a pen and small trade items, YET it is hidden well enough that muggles should not be a factor.
4) Though not overly difficult, this is NOT a park & grab; before posting a log declaring it missing, needing maintenance or needing archived, grant me the courtesy of sending me a pic or description of where you searched. I will know if I need to take a look.
5) PLEASE, no spoiler pics or descriptions in your logs so that others can enjoy the quest.
Enjoy, happy hunting, and good luck spilling your ink. Cache ya later!

Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning and effort to create and place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, the journey, or location, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or "copy and paste" logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.
Travel Bug Etiquette: Cachers pay good money for Travel Bugs and Geocoins. If you take a TB or GC from a cache, PLEASE ensure it is correctly logged in and out. If you take one that still shows it is somewhere else, please be patient before "grabbing" the item; it does not get its mileage by being grabbed before the last person to drop it has had time to log their placement. This is particularly important on busy and new caches. If you have an issue with a bug or coin, please e-mail or message the owner through their profile and advise them of the issue; they will be pleased to hear from you.
