Geocache Description:

Three caches located in Lake Fairfax Park.

http://www.co.fairfax.va.us/parks/lakefront.htm

The goal of this multi is to trade your Geotrash in the two small satellite caches, and to trade higher quality items in the large cache. That way, those that find the final cache are better rewarded for their efforts. (Although finding it should be a big reward in itself.)

This is a relatively straightforward multicache, located in Lake Fairfax Park. The park allows pets on leashes.
The coordinates given are to the first of the three caches.

The navigation can be done almost entirely by trail, with only about 400 yards logged off trail for the entire multi. (Thats assuming you navigate perfectly!) But I will admit that for the final leg of the cache, the off trail may be a bit tricky.

Also note that these caches were placed by bike, so there may be some distance between them, but nothing excessive. A few words of precaution - you may want long pants, you should also know that the coords used in this multi are NOT WAAS enhanced. I was unable to pick up WAAS signals, so instead I took many separate readings and averaged them. If you find the caches to have significantly erroneous coordinates, please post your coordinates. This is our first multi, and we would appreciate any help or criticism!
