Geocache Description:


Songs from the Wood

 

A Clean Sweep

 

This is a new addition to a series of caches on the beautiful Clatsop Loop and Tillamook Head Trails.  For complete details and a list of the caches, please see Woody.

 

An easy multicache for a change of pace!

 

Start at the posted coordinates, which will get you to a hikers' camp.  Note that if your hike takes you on the west (ocean) side of the Clatsop Loop, there are very extreme drop-offs.  Keep a close eye on kids and keep dogs leashed!

 

Look inside a cabin for an item that fits the cache title.

 

Locate the label featuring white letters on a black background.

 

Pick out the six words on the label in the following list:

 

Dear (4)

Place (3)

Camper (9)

Park (1)

Please (5)

Center (6)

Leave (8)

Campground (2)

Feet (7)

In (7)

The (4)

Beyond (8)

Sweep (0)

Cabin (0)

Thank (9)

Seven (1)

Clean (3)

Fun (9)

You (9)

Very (2)

Return (5)

Much (8)

Carefully (3)

 

Use the six digits that follow the words, in the same order, to fill in the X's in the cache coordinates:

 

N 45 56.XXX

 

W 123 59.XXX

Enjoy the hike!
