Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

A small ammo box is located in a forested area bounded by 35th Ave SE, 132nd St SE and Seattle Hill Road. Thomas Lake is also in this area but is well hidden by brush along the road.

To find this cache you will need to determine the final cache coordinates from the intersecting bearings from three waypoints. You will not be able to get to the cache directly from any of the waypoints, unless you can fly.

Please do not go to these waypoints. They are at the intersections of very busy streets and a highway.

WP1: The intersection of 35th Ave SE and 132nd St SE (N47° 52.679’, W122° 11.113’) Bearing 152° true.

WP2: The intersection of 132nd St SE and Seattle Hill Road (N47° 52.666’, W122° 09.947’) Bearing 239° true.

WP3: The intersection of Seattle Hill Road and 35th Ave SE (N47° 51.626’, W122° 11.165’) Bearing 18° true.

Do NOT enter the cache site from the West or go into the gravel pit. Enter the woods from the East.
