Geocache Description:


GPS Reference point in 2002

 

Back in 2009 I found a geocache hidden in this area. GCBA53 Tamarack Cache hidden by Scook. His cache page listed coordinates to GPS Reference Point (2). Back then I used a Garmin Etrex GPSr. Now I see two GPS Reference Points are here. The Reference Points have been placed by the Michigan Society of Professional Surveyors and Cabela's.

 

Currently, i am using a Galaxy A13 smartphone. My phone had +/- 8 feet error and my results were about 30 feet difference. Results will vary. Have fun!!!
