Geocache Description:


THE ABOVE COORDS ARE NOT FOR THE GEOCACHE.

We guys are often criticized for not asking for directions. Here, you will not have to ask for directions but you must find them so bring a compass.

Follow these instructions:
(1) Go to the coords listed above;
(2) Look around for a sign containing the word of one of the four main compass points. Highway and street signage does not count.
(3) Using a compass or GPS receiver, go in that compass direction for about 50 feet. Do NOT necessarily go toward the sign that you found - go in the compass direction that was on that sign.
(4) Find a magnetic cache container. Sign the log (bring your own pencil).
(5) As a bonus, the log contains a number to fill in one of 4 blank spaces in the coords for Get Directions #5. The other 3 numbers can be found in Get Directions #s 2, 3, and 4. If you are going to hunt for Get Directions #5 now, you should do 2 – 4 in order since they are somewhat in order geographically. In any event, find Get Directions #4 last since the bonus cache is nearby.

With special thanks to geocacher Bozo whose Compass Rose caches in Fredericksburg was the inspiration for this series of hides.

Happy searching!
