Geocache Description:

Web-ling cache #61 This is Web-ling's last Texas cache.
Watauga Texas Logo

This is a 3-stage multi-cache.  The first two stages are virtual, the last stage is a camoflaged round Altoids tin containing a logbook, a pencil stub, and a few micro-trinkets. The terrain rating assumes you will drive at least part of the way.

As of August, 2003, this cache will be maintained by 509eagle, because Web-ling has moved to Cincinnati.

The posted coordinates will take you to the first stage.  Look for a serial number in the format 0xxxxxB at the SOUTH end of the large object.  Add the following to get the latitude for the next stage:

N32º
42.176

+
xx.xxx

N32º

Latitude X

Your coordinates for the second stage are  Latitude X, W097º15.450

At the second stage, you will be looking at two sculptures and a plaque.  Answer these questions to get the coordinates for Stage 3:

A = Number of letters in the last word of the first paragraph on the plaque. ________

B = Number of rocks under the boy with the canteen. _______

C = Number of bare feet. _______

D = Number of children standing on rocks. _______

E = Number of children wearing hats. _______

F = Number of children in all. _______

The coordinates for stage 3 are N32º52.ABC  W097º15.DEF


North Texas Geocaching Association If you get totally stuck on Stage 3, email the coordinates you came up with to me, and I'll give you an additional hint.
