Watershed Moment Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

kiwimonster: When we hid this cache, we didn't expect it to last for over 5 years. In fact, we've been meaning to archive it for some time, and now's the time. Glad it provided so much fun and challenge. We always like to place caches that result in long and interesting logs!

Thanks, peelster, for retrieving it! Looking forward to meeting for dinner and the cache exchange.

Geocache Description:

The listed waypoint is NOT the location of the cache. It will get you in the general area. You will need to use the information below to determine the actual cache location.

To find the specific location of the cache, as well as the type of container (it could be a large-size cache) and color (it could be navy), use the following information. You will be looking for kiwimonster's cache (not a cache hidden by kiwimonster's fictitious littermates: kiwimasher, kiwimaster, kiwimonger, or kiwimunster).

1. The latitudes range from North 45 degrees 31.397 minutes to North 45 degrees 32.797 minutes. The longitudes range from West 122 degrees 50.099 minutes to West 122 degrees 51.099 minutes. Four of the five possible caches had either the smallest or largest number on one of these parameters.

2. The cookie tin is not green. The black and white possible caches are, in some order, the smallest and largest.

3. The 5 possible caches are kiwimonster's, the micro, the one with the largest longitude, the one with the smallest latitude, and the camo-colored one.

4. Kiwimonger, kiwimasher, and kiwimonster would all have hidden regular size caches.

5. The 5 possible caches are latitude 45 degrees 31.697 minutes, longitude 122 degrees 50.599 minutes, the ammo box, the green one, and kiwimonger's.

6. The decimal part of kiwimonster's latitude is .400 greater than the ammo box, which is .400 greater than the one that might have been hidden at 45 degrees 31.697 minutes. The camo cache's longitude is .200 less than the cookie tin's longitude and .500 less than cache with the largest latitude. The tupperware's longitude is .300 less than kiwimunster's and .200 more than the black cache.

When you go to find the cache, please note that it's in an ecologically sensitive area. Two important reminders: boots and blackberries.

The Watershed Moment cache started out with the following, in addition to logbook and writing implement:
* Glitter glue
* Black candles
* Pair of costume glasses
* A couple of pencils
* Utility hooks
