Geocache Description:


This is a Letterbox Hybrid cache, and the container is NOT located at the posted coordinates. Parking will be easier - and you'll have more fun - if you start at the posted coordinates.

Another thing everyone needs is a Letterbox Hybrid cache! When placed, this container was full of green SWAG 'n stuff. There was a custom-made log book, green stamp pad and "NTLB" stamp inside. Sadly, that all got swiped, as did its replacement. There are stickers inside that can be affixed in your Letterbox book in place of the stamp. I'd love to see your own signature stamp in the log book, but if you don't have your own stamp and stamp pad, please sign the log as usual. DO NOT LEAVE TRACKABLES HERE.

I like the old-style Letterboxes which let you follow directions to reach the prize. This Letterbox will do that, after taking you on a very short walk. The Letterbox directions:

1. Start at the green (and yellow) thing AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. Don't park right in front of it, though!

2. Walk to the closest telephone pole that requires you to cross a street. Watch out for cars!

3. Continue to the nearest street sign.

4. Amble along on the numbered street in the direction that the house numbers ascend.

*** Wait! Are you going down? Are you going up? Maybe both! ***

5. Keep walking until you spot a round stepping stone placed just west of the sidewalk.

Now, start looking. Ah, there it is!

(If you cross a driveway, you've gone too far.)

 

 

Instructions for finding the container just using your GPS, starting at the posted coordinates:

Subtract .045 from the Latitude (North) and

Add .014 to the Longitude (West)

The Letterbox held a prize for the First-to-Finder (congratulations to latetrap). Congrats also to timsoccerdogg for the STF and his 2,000th find.
