Geocache Description:


This cache is inside the college, so you must visit at a time when the college is open.  Generally, this part of the college is open 5 days a week except for typical Federal holidays, the week of Christmas/New Years, and Fridays in the summer months.

You will need to collect clues from the Junior Bollard caches, of which there is one on each campus (including this one).  The clues in the Bollards listed below are needed to find and open the bonus container.  Each clue is on the inside of the container cap and repeated on or inside the cover of the log book.  If you collected clues from the bollards prior to the date this cache was published, those old clues are no longer useful.

As a Letterbox cache, there is a rubber stamp in the cache container.  This is not a trade item.

Junior Bollard #1 - Adams GC8GVX9

Junior Bollard #2 - Marshfield GC8GWM7

Junior Bollard #3 - Stevens Point GC8TAFG

Junior Bollard #4 - Wisconsin Rapids GC8GWKC

Use the clues to go to coordinate 44°23.5AM 89°47.0SW.  The letters are the location (L: ) clues from each bollard, where the variable is the first letter of the city name.  This will bring you to an object of significance that has been here since 2010. 

  • Count the number of red vertical panels, which is V. Then solve V * 4 = X
  • Find Karl's name, stand there, look past the object and let a corner point the way to a door.
  • From the inside of that door, walk down the hallway past brick column two, and turn left before brick column 3.
  • Follow the red brick road to its end.
  • Lift your eyes and let the arrow point the way.
  • Remember solving for X? X marks the spot. 
  • Now use the key (K: ) clues from three of the bollards to open the container.

There are two logs in this cache.  One is the typical log book you sign, and the other gives you a codeword to include when you make your online log.  Have fun writing a creative log that incorporates your codeword.

This container has some great swag; please be stealthy when accessing the cache.  If the swag inventory is low, please let us know.

This cache was placed with permission of Dr. Bobbi Damrow, Vice President of Workforce Development & Community Relations at the college in August, 2021.
