Happykraut: The metal box at the final had been moved by someone to where I had trouble finding it. A new cache has already been placed. Just need to write it up and get it approved.

Geocache Description:

Coords listed above are for suggested parking to the final cache location. This cache is in a brown metal box with geocaching.com stenciled on the outside and is located in Lost Valley in the Weldon Springs Conservation Area. The area has some nice trails complete with a 8 mile hiking/mountain bike loop. It also has active beaver ponds and three lakes. The Little Femme Osage creek runs thru this area. Parking available at coords given above.

1-WP1 is located at N38 40.941 and W90 44.033. Find a three digit number on a large yellow sign. Divide this number by 1000 and call it 'A'.
2-WP2 is located at N38 39.866 and W90 44.343. Find a three digit number on a large yellow sign. Divide this number by 1000 and call it 'B'.
3-Go to WP3 which is located at N38 39.972 + 'A' and W90 44.658 +'B' and find a yellow plastic box.
4-The box contains info to project a WP to the final cache location.

Total roundtrip from parking lot is under 2 miles. Mostly a flat road then a nice trail with one minor hill. There is a hill to the final, but not bad if approached from the high point of the trail.

IT IS ABSOLUTLY NOT NECESSARY TO TEAR UP THE AREA TO LOCATE THIS CACHE! IT IS WELL HIDDEN BUT NOT BURIED AFTER ALL. JUST USE YOUR "GEO-COMMON SENSE" AND YOU WILL FIND IT. IF YOU CANNOT FIND IT WITHOUT TEARING UP THE LANDSCAPE JUST E-MAIL ME AND I WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER HINT.

Thanks to John Vogel of the MDC for his cooperation. Hunting is allowed in the area. For more information call 636-441-4554.
