Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the listed coordinates!

Parking is located on Pellet Road. The listed parking coordinates allow for easy access to the woods. From there, you need to choose your own path to the cache site! The woods provide a variety of terrains to traverse, so you can make this as easy or difficult as you want.


The cache is located at N43 14.ABC and W077 29.DEF. To find the coordinates of the cache, you need to complete a quick quiz regarding First Aid. It is a True / False quiz. Depending on your answer, plug in the corresponding number to produce the cache’s resting spot.

A. When first responders are evaluating a patient, the mnemonic ‘ABC’ they follow during the exam stands for airway, breathing and circulation.
True = 8 False = 7

B. Heimlich Maneuver is a technique for helping a choking victim.
True = 9 False = 8

C. Anaphylaxis is never a life-threatening medical emergency.
True = 3 False = 1

D. First degree burns are the worst burn in the classification system.
True = 1 False = 0

E. Classical symptoms of a heart attack include chest pain, shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, palpitations, sweating, anxiety or a feeling of impending doom.
True = 7 False = 8

F. Strains are best treated with heat.
True = 6 False = 7

You are looking for a quart-sized lock-n-lock container. Inside are a log book and some small trade items. The GPS was a touch jumpy while placing the cache, but when you allow your geo-senses to kick in, this should be readily found.

Enjoy the woods!

Congratulations to Wheelygood on another FTF!

***4/2/2011*** The final is best approached from the South now. The easy path in from the East is obscured due to lots of blown down large trees.
