How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


This is one end of a “teamwork” multi-cache; one cache in Missouri and one cache in Virginia. If you are in the St. Louis, MO area, you will need to contact a cacher in the Richmond, VA area to complete this cache and vice versa. The Virginia cache is GC944K0 – “Virginia to Missouri, A Teamwork Cache”.

Hopefully, finding this cache will establish some “caching connections” between the two states, as geocachers from both states need to form a team and help each other in order to find the respective finals.  So, no worries!  You do not need to travel to Missouri and Virginia to find your log.

At stage 1, you will find the coordinates for the final stage of the puzzle in Virginia.  Vice versa for the Virginia cache; the first stage in Virginia will have the coordinates for the final stage in Missouri.

To complete the cache, find the final VA coordinates at stage 1, write them down and go to the webpage of the “twin” cache.  If there is already a note asking for help on THIS listing page, react to it first.  This way, you give the coordinates you found at stage 1 to the cacher in the other state, who will take over from there.  Once you have received the coordinates for stage 2 in your state, go find it!

Only the person who finds this final stage is allowed to log this cache as a find.  If your “out-of-state teammate” did not physically find this final stage, they cannot log it as a find, per Groundspeak Guidelines.  Once you complete this cache you will get credit for finding a cache with the “teamwork” attribute.

NPGlenn and Oldhippie73 will not be FTF on either cache and cannot help in locating the final for either cache.  Don’t ask them for coords.

Park hours are 7:00 am until 1/2 hour after sunset


IF ANY SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY OR DAMAGE IS NOTICED IN A ST. LOUIS COUNTY PARK, PLEASE CALL 314-615-8911 AND REPORT IT.

Warning

NOTICE: Please be respectful of the posted park hours. If you enter the park after hours you are trespassing. If you are stopped you can be ticketed or arrested and will put the future of geocaching in the parks in jeopardy. Special permission to hide caches in St. Louis County parks is NOT needed as long as the Geocaching.com Guidelines are followed. "Blanket Permission" has been worked out in advance with the park service. DO NOT CALL THE PARK as they cannot handle the calls. The Geocaching.com cache reviewer does need to know exactly how and where the caches are hidden and what type of containers are used. Remember NO AMMO BOXES or PVC PIPE caches.
