Geocache Description:

This is an easy two-stage multi with the final location about 1/2 mile from the first waypoint. Enjoy the cache and learn a little bit about the Interurban Trail.

FINAL LOCATION and PUZZLE CHANGED 09/08/18.

This cache is called a Holiday Cache because it used to contain tacky Christmas and other holiday items. Unfortunately, this cache has had a difficult history starting when it was destroyed by an industrial brush whacker in 2004, and it has been muggled several times since. The trail has much more use than when I placed the cache in 2002, so to keep this old cache active, this time I hid a smaller container by a lone tree. Next the tree was sawed down and the cache again destroyed by an industrial weed whacker. Now is is in a safer location along the fence.This cache is on a lesser-used one-mile section on the Interurban Trail between 164th St. SW and Maple Rd. The entrance is on 13th Ave W near Crane Aerospace (N47 50.734, W122 15.099). Park in the public parking at the fire station across the street. The cache is about 1/2 mile from the entrance.

To make the cache more interesting, you have to solve a small puzzle in order to find the actual cache coordinates. There is a sign explaining the Interurban Trail at the entrance. The clues to the actual cache location are all on this sign.

Look for a telephone number in the format xxx-AxB-xExx

The trail is approximately xD miles in length.

The trail ran between Ballard and Bellingham until the xCxF's.

The cache is located at the following coordinates using the above clues. N47 50.ABC W122 15.DEF The cache is a small container along the fence. PLEASE cover well with leaves and grass during the winter when cover foliage is lacking.
