Geocache Description:

Bring a flashlight! (The more powerful the better!!) (And I mean MORE POWERFUL!!!)

You are looking for white reflectors -- two white fire tacks -- in a tree. From listed coordinates you can see -- with the use of a flashlight -- the first white reflectors in the distance (southward). If you can't see anything, head towards Asheville's stock and bond road. Each subsequent reflector is usually visible while standing near the previous set. Usually. The path is not always straight and obvious; there are a few interesting turns. If you find a grouping of five reflectors that look like an "X" or a "+", you are very close to the cache; it will be found about fifteen feet away.

The total walk is about half a mile. If you park your car near the listed coordinates you will not have far to walk once you find the cache.

An urban night cache comes with unique dangers, so please be discreet. You are looking for a magnetic keybox with a pink waterproof log. (You also might find a bison tube hanging in a bush. Sign either log. Trade items not recommended.) Enjoy!
