Geocache Description:

This was a three part multi cache. First two parts involved finding 2 benchmarks in the town of Bethel, however..one of them has been destroyed and therefore ....now, from a small parking area off Nashville rd.... go direct to final coordinates: 41 22.069 73 24.619..and find cache...this change took place march 4 2019.

The description..below....is the original way, back in the good old days..??? how this cache needed to be solved...[ if you are interested?]

Due to the possibilities of many muggles spoiling things at the cache
site, finding tupperware with goodies….have reluctantly (?) resorted to hiding a small micro (with log only) in the woods, ones I hate, however, the only really difficult part of executing this cache may be finding info micro 1. Spoiler ? pix and decent hints are available to keep this experience at fun level. Coords above take you (approx.) to a point on Greenwood Ave. in front of library...
dont go there.

Part 1 Lookup my log, pix and my posted coords for benchmark
LX0946…check pix, the hidden digit [under small pebble] is
distance in feet from benchmark to information micro with West
coords of final cache location.

Part 2 Just as in part 1, find benchmark LX0947 [ or now only pictures of it...!! ] check my log and [ spoiler ] pix,
and grab the number covered by a leaf in pix and subtract it
from the last 3 digits of: 41 22.480 for north coords of final
cache location.

Note: Use my posted coords for benchmarks, as they are more accurate
than surveyors scaled estimates, done pre GPS and with NAD 27 Datum.

Do not approach cache from the cemetery or fire house, come in from the other, east side. While in the area, checkout Viquesney’s Doughboy
[GC5B3C] monument [ see Perfect Tommy’s log of June 8 2002….]
and Ring The Bethel Peace Bell [ GCGJ97 ] cache and pending time of year, have an ice cream at Scoop’s or Dr Mike’s or coffee at O’Niels or
[ FTF prize gift coupon for = ] some Molten Java.

Additional Hints (Decrypt)

[ the 35mm black film can micro cache is well hidden, camouflaged..... and not in plain sight ] fgvpx gb vg vaghvgvir fxvyyf erdhverq [ light fluffy snow…6-8 inches not a problem ]
