Geocache Description:

3 part multi, the final is an ammo box with mis-matched socks as a theme.

Have you ever wondered what happens to those socks in your dryer? You know, a pair goes in but only one comes out. Well the the answer to this age old question is that the dragons get them! Your job is to try to find them.

The cache is stocked with lots pairs of new socks and everyone is welcome to take a pair. Bring a single though, and perhaps you'll find it's mate.

There's also a $20 gift cert from EMS as a FTF prize, a bunch o' coupons for Stewarts for the walk back. A dragon to guard over the stash until he moves on. Look for the 3 TBs including Lefty La Pue.

Cache is on an old railroad bed turned hiking path in Delmar, NY. Parking is available at N42 37.549 W073 48.790 or at N42 37.503 W073 48.821 Total hike is about 2.9 miles.

The coordinates for part one take you to a metal structure. Look in the opposite corner. About the size of a business card.

At part two, look around. You will see a sign of rules for proper courtesy along the hiking path. You know, that long list of rules without which, I guess people are too stupid to just walk along and enjoy themselves without causing mayhem. From this sign project a way point: 4,279.441 feet and 270.249 degrees.
