Geocache Description:

The only place to get a McDyver's Clan wooden coin

The listed coordinates are for parking, in this multi cache you'll find 2 locations one location has the N value of the final cache and the other has the W value. The clues at each location are on a clear plastic strip in plain view.
(HINT: dentists clean this off teeth but no need for a geocacher to remove this from either location)

This cache is a no trade required cache, it's filled with McDyver's Clan wooden coins the first finder gets coin number 005. (yeah I know first is s'posed to get 001 but the first four coins are for the Clan).
The cache container is a small army green plastic container, it blends in rather well and from a distance may be difficult to see even though it's not covered by anything, also there's no need to cross any nearby boundaries. (Please replace cache as found)

This cache can be found in any of three ways, the phil and lil method, the triangulation method, or the visual method.

Phil and Lil Method:
Find Phil and Lil.
Phil resides in Phil's Home Cache, Lil resides in Butterick Trail Cache.
Phil and Lil each have a tag with a coordinate to either Location A or Location B.(technically both coordinates are needed to complete the find, however like Phil and Lil, Location A and Location B are twins)

The Triangulation method: (ode to Geometry)
Use Vantage Point A, B, and C to figure out the coords for Location A and Location B

Coordinates are as follows for:
Vantage Point A- N42* 26.152 W071* 45.453
Vantage Point B- N42* 26.280 W071* 45.290
Vantage Point C- N42* 26.283 W071* 45.433

from Location A
V.P. A is .07km away
V.P. B is .27km away
V.P. C is .23km away

from Location B
V.P. A is .26km away
V.P. B is .06km away
V.P. C is .15km away

The Visual Method:
Travel to Vantage Point A (between 2 trees and a stop sign) and Vantage Point B(a large tree near 2 buildings)
Look for something that looks almost the same at each V.P.
remember that the twin locations are not directly at the Vantage Points but a short distance away
Vantage Point C is a curved light pole and has no use in the visual method.
