FDG Front Nine Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

luvgeezuz: I Went to check on this hide to get ready for the summer and found out that several markers and pin placements have changed. The math will not work any more. I will permanently archive this cache and do a different cache in the area. Hope that all of you that completed this one enjoyed it.

Geocache Description:

FDG (Frontier Disc Golf) Front Nine is the 1st of two 10 part mystery caches located on an 18 hole disc golf course which spans across 5,606 feet. It begins in West Frontier (Hwy 40 Bypass) and goes throughout the Frontier Parks. The course is not wheelchair accessible as it consists of many challanges such as elevation changes and creek crossings.

You will be looking for a cammo collored pringles sized canister consisting of a log book and numerous small items for trade. The coordinates listed above are for parking near the # 1 tee box located by the West Frontier shelter house. If you do this cache and follow it up by doing "FDG Back Nine" cache you will end up back to within 200 feet of your vehicle. Allow one hour to complete both caches.
The idea of this cache is to go to the limestone post near each tee box and record the distance of the hole to get the coordinates for the final cache location. The distances are recorded on each limestone post, either on a plate or engraved on the post. If you get lost on the way I have provided the coordinates to the limestone post of each hole. You may want to bring a golf disc and play the course since you are walking it anyway.
