TeacherMatt: Thanks to everyone that has found this cache. I am moving out of state this weekend, and feel that this and my other caches have run their time. With the removal of this cache, new possibilities open for others to place caches in this area.

Geocache Description:

The above coordinates will NOT take you to the cache. If you go to them, you will find a nice coffee shop in Fredericksburg where you will sometimes find TeacherMatt and Little One grading papers or reading books. The actual cache is about 1.5 miles away.


This is a multi-step puzzle cache. It is a blend of some of our favorite caches, plus a twist of our own.

Steps to the final treasure are as follows:

Step 1: Complete the micro-cache "When the Lights Go Out" in Fredericksburg, VA. Copy the clue and sign the log. "When the Lights Go Out" is best done between dusk and dawn.

Step 2: The clue in the micro-cache will translate into coordinates of the final cache location. The coordinates will be in DD MM.MMM format. Your task is to determine the encryption method.

Step 3: Proceed to the final cache location. The inside of the cache is about 4x5x8 inches. It is hidden by disguise rather than concealment. Take careful note of how you extract the cache so you can return everything exactly as you found it to preserve the challenge. Please no spoilers in the logs!

This cache location can be busy at times, so take care not to be seen while accessing the cache. Please be sure to re-hide the cache carefully. As in many off trail caches, watch out for ivy, thorns, snakes, and especially spiders.

Have fun! And Good Luck!
