Geocache Description:


This cache is placed at Highlands Hammock State Park

The park is open from 8 am until sunset, 365 days a year.

A state park entrance fee is required.

 

Under the guidance of the U.S. Forest Service, the National Park Service and the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture, CCC employees fought forest fires, planted trees, cleared and maintained access roads, re-seeded grazing lands and implemented soil-erosion controls.

Additionally, they built wildlife refuges, fish-rearing facilities, water storage basins and animal shelters. To encourage citizens to get out and enjoy America’s natural resources, FDR authorized the CCC to build bridges and campground facilities.

 

At the posted coordinates use the info on the sign - the further north of two nearby signs, the sign you need has NO arrows - to determine the final coordinates using to the formula below:

N27 28.ABC W81 31.DEF

 

A = number of letters in the 4th word

B = number of letters in the 3rd word MINUS ONE

C = number of letters in the last word DIVIDED BY TWO

D = number of letters in the 2nd word

E = number of letters in the the 1st word MINUS ONE

F = number of letters in the last word

 

Happy trails!
