Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the above coordinates. They represent a random location within 5 miles of the cache.

Euclid of Alexandria (625BC-265BC) is the most prominent mathematician of antiquites best known for his treatise on mathematics,"The Elements". The long lasting nature of "The Elements" must make him the leading mathematics teacher of all time. That said, on with the show.

The three sets of coordinates below represent the vertices of a triangle. The cache lies at the circumcenter of the triangle. You will need good plotting techniques to get an accurate set of coordinates.

The cache container is a standard ammo box and is well hidden but should be obvious to a geocacher. It contains a log book, pen & pencil, a small assortment of goodies, Twinkie The Kid TB and a First to Find prize. It is in a very nice area but some minor bushwacking is required.

Have fun
