Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES

The second planet from the sun. Bigger than the first, but not much more pleasant. Found The Sun yet? If not, you might want to check out that cache first. (GC3R6K1) Find this cache will be much easier once you've found that one.


Venus' orbit is pretty regular. If you leave the sun heading on a bearing 287 degrees and 34 minutes, you should have no trouble finding Venus.

GPS reception is a bit sketchy in here, but once you get to the right "area", cache is probably to your north and west.

Alternatively, try plugging your coordinates into googlemaps. That seems to line up with the actual cache location.
