Geocache Description:

The Cache is not at the published coordinates, but it is your starting point
This is a Night Cache

Start at the given coordinates and use your flashlight to light the fire-tacks that will show you the path. As you follow the fire tacked trail you will come across four glowing "faces" along the way additionally marked by an orange fire tack. On the opposite side of the trail from the "face" & within 20ish ft of the trail, you will find a fire tacked tree & a pill bottle next to or attached to that tree. Inside on the lid you will find a UV colored number/letter. Each letter/number has its own UV color associated with it. After you have found all four input your answers in the form below to be given the final coordinates.

The Cache

This is a night cache which requires both a flashlight & UV Light.

There are four "faces" on the way to the cache that have fire tacked trees with hanging pill bottles on the opposite side of trail from each face.

The cache is within .5 miles of the start

Once you find the final, the best way to get back to your car is to head back the same direction you took to the final, back towards the trailhead entrance.

The Hunt

  • Park at the parking coordinates given below (Park Here).
  • Go to the given coordinates as they are your starting point, trailhead.
  • Use your flashlight once at the trailhead to see the fire-tacks that will light up your path.
  • Find the four glowing faces along the way (also marked by orange fire tack).
  • After finding the face look to the opposite side of trail. Within 20 ft of the trail you will find a fire-tacked tree & hanging pill bottle.
  • Inside each pill bottle you will find a UV colored number/letter. Each color you need to associate with the given letter/number.
Enter the letter/number & then color strings in the order they were on trail below to be given final coordinates as well as a hint. All capital letters with no spaces! For example if the first face tree had a T and was RED, it would be "TRED".

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
