Geocache Description:


This is Queens County's First Wherigo albeit a reverse one!

In these geocaching times, it is rare to find large caches. So to have some fun, I have created the BIG BLACK CACHE (The BBC).  I know everyone is always looking for a BBC to fulfill a challenge but they can be elusive. Most days, it's seems to be more micros with the occasional regular one for variety. It's true that size doesn't matter when you're looking for one more icon or number to add to your profile, but there are some challenges to complete where you have to have a large cache. I hope you enjoy this BBC.  

 

     The posted coordinates are bogus but it gives you a starting point. 

     This Wherigo converts your player into a virtual version of a "Reverse Cache Box" which tells you the distance to the cache, but not the direction. You must use your Smartphone or Wherigo compatible GPS device to navigate to the cache.

 

 (acknowledgement: -Waldmeister-'s First Reverse Cache was the original for this type of Wherigo)

 

     In order to find this cache, you must either decode the numbers (Ask Google) or query your Reverse Cache Box which will give you the distance to the final location, but not the direction. All instructions and necessary information needed to complete the cartridge are contained within it. The cartridge is multilingual.

     To begin, you will have to type these codes into your player (or into a decoder):

 

570344

465104

620036

    

Once you have this decoded, you can go directly to it. The road is a dirt road but very passable.
