Orientation in the Davis Nation Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Krypton: As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

This is a five-stage multi-cache that will test your compass skills. All stages are hidden in/on man-made objects.

"Orientation – position with relation to the points of the compass.”

With all this GPSing, PDAing, GoogleMapping, and drive-up microcaching I sometimes think we have lost what I consider the point of Geocaching; to get outside and use our legs and our wits and our sense of adventure to have some fun and get some exercise.

To find this cache you will need to use your feet, your GPS, and your compass (that’s right, a COMPASS) to find the final cache. To reward your efforts I have placed a LARGE, fully stocked ammo can at the final location. The total round-trip walking distance is about 3 miles. To locate three of the cache locations you will need to use the compass bearing and distance from your current location. At each location you will find the information necessary direct you to the next stage.

This is a very nice area for dog-walking, bird-watching, or mountain biking. But, be prepared for an adventure. This cache will likely take over two hours (if walking) and can be very hot and exposed in the summer time.

Remember, I used a compass, so all directions are in MAGNETIC North.

Congratulations to Team Sharpseekers for F.T.F!

Congratulations to Nylimb for making this his 1000th FIND!
