Geocache Description:


Located in the Lake Lizzie Nature Preserve, it's available dawn to dusk only and the posted coordinates will place you in the middle of Lake Lizzie so if you go there, a boat is needed!

This is a 2-stage cache but in order to get to S1 a little coordinate adjustment must be made unless you simply want to be relaxing in the sun in the middle of Lake Lizzie. So, read the following carefully and adjust the cache page coordinates as follows: 

    Add 00.007 to N mm.sss and subtract 01.140 from W mm.sss if you come in from the North, or
    Subtract .676 from N .sss and subtract 00.675 from W mm.sss if you prefer to come in
    from the South

The choice is yours. Either way, expect about a 2.0-3.0 mile trek in the open and across some white-sand covering the trail so it can get hot: Take lots of water, sun guard and bug spray.

North Route

Your new coordinates will take you to a gray 4" preform which contains the coordinates to the final GZ. (Please open and reseal completely)


South Route

Based on the adjustment made earlier, you should be at or near a distinctive power pole with a manufacturer's crest and a 6-digit label with ID number beginning with a zero.

Using the ID number (as ABCDEF) determine the Final's GZ as follows:

    N28 1a.bcd W81 0e.fgh

    a = (C-1)           e = B
    b = (A + 1)        f = F
    c = C                g = A
    d = (E - 1)        h = B

    

Now head out and enjoy your trek!

 

Either route chosen will have you are looking for 4" black preform tethered to a tree with slight bushwacking to GZ, it's about 6' off the ground.

Just in case, BYOP and for interest to others make note as to your trek - North or South

Enjoy
