Geocache Description:

This cache is not at the posted coordinates! The posted coordinates are for a PA Game Land road along the route by the cache. This area is open to the public for hunting. During hunting season, YOU MUST WEAR AN ORANGE HAT AND VEST FOR YOUR SAFETY.


To find the cache, you will have to solve the circle quandary!

This is our third cache for the Bear Valley Puzzle Series.  Hopefully these puzzles are not only challenging, but educational and fun.  So, for those who accept our circle geocache challenge, I wish you good luck.  For those who look at this and turn away in fear, as always, I wish you happy hunting of other caches.

Geometry, Isosceles Triangles, Circles, PI (number 3.14) with never ending digits: so many places to hide a geocache. Search deep into the circle to find the missing coordinates.

All the clues to solve this puzzle are on this page, but you might have to visit the deep dark corners of the internet for the final solution.  Have fun!!

Notes from new CO, (11/14/25): Assume the 70 degrees in the top image are the angles formed by a chord between the two points. Use 3.14 for Pi.

For any calculations using Pi, please use 3.14 rather than the Pi calculator key. You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
