Geocache Description:

This is an easy cache to find, but one must first do some number crunching to compile the real coordinates and then make your way to the Airport Oasis for a cache and dash!


This bison tube log-only micro cache is not hidden at the posted coordinates. Bring a pen to sign the log and no stickers please. This is a chance to give back a find to the many devoted Arizona geocachers who have hidden so many outstanding caches in the Phoenix area!

The real coordinates are:
N 33.25.ABX
W 112.00.77X

X= Team Geo-Rangers Average Cache Find/Day (up to 9/15/06)

A+B=X

A>B

Neither A nor B = 0


Team Geo-rangers started caching on 12/3/03. Calculate the number of days between this date and 9/15/06. Divide 3,017 finds by this number. The rounded result yields X and perhaps an indication of just how devoted, or demented, we are to this sport!

Its optional to include in your find log your own team's average cache find per day, rounded off to the nearest tenth.

One is a casual cacher if the average is less than or equal to one half.
One is a moderate cacher if the average is less than or equal to one.
One is a serious cacher if less than or equal to two.
One is a compulsive cacher if less than or equal to four.
One is an obsessive compulsive cacher if less than or equal to six.
Between six and ten, this is your only hobby with the rest of your day spent eating, sleeping, and/or working.
Over ten, clearly a MegaCacher or one in the making and Geocaching is your sole existence and purpose in life.

Happy geocaching ... fellow geo-addicts!!!
