Geocache Description:


THE POSTED COORDS ARE NO GOOD. There is nothing there (except an active runway) and you'll get arrested if you go there.

 

This cache will be easy for any Oregonian avgeeks, flightsim pilots, or real pilots. If not, it'll be a bit more challenging! Feel free to message us if you need a push in the right direction. :)

The final is 1.5/1.5, the difficulty is for the puzzle.
