Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!!THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!! HELLO! HELLOOO! MCFLYYYY!THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!! DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE!!THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!!

The first stage is at the following coordinates:

40°07.683 079°44.310

Chief Jacob of the Delaware Indian tribe ruled this area many years ago.

Chief Jacob relied on a series of codes and navigational aids, so that this stash was thoroughly protected and kept secret. Known as a great warrior, Chief Jacob made this hidden stash so that only other warriors with great strength of body and mind could find. Take on this quest to rediscover Chief Jacob's stash, and test yourself with this almost impossible cache.

This quest to find the stash will not be an easy, in-and-out grab, plan a whole day for this 5-stage cache. Chief Jacob has hints, codes, and puzzles that will challenge you to a great extent. It will run you from every corner of Jacobs Creek. Don't expect to get this cache on your first try, unless you are both physically and mentally prepared for this cache.

There are no hints on this page. Once you find the first stage of the cache, there will be a page full of codes to deciphyer and hints to help those of you out who cannot find the cache once at the location. Those of you wanting additional hints must log a DNF. Good luck, you'll need it.
