Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. If you go there you will find something red but not related to the cache! Please solve the following puzzle to reveal the true location!





Red is the color of extremes. It’s the color of passionate love, seduction, violence, danger, anger, and adventure.

Red is one of the top two favorite colors of all people.

Red is the most popular color used on flags in the world. Approximately 77% of all flags include red.

Red is the color of good luck in Asia and is the most popular color in China. In Feng Shui, a red door means “Welcome.”

A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important issue. It may be either a logical fallacy or a literary device that leads readers or audiences towards a false conclusion.




Well, there is nothing misleading here.

To find this cache you must project. And none of this 2 mile radius stuff either! Start with the posted coordinates and calculate a new waypoint that is a 325 degree heading from the origin, and 130 miles away.

Now that you have your waypoint, reference google earth and note the geographical name. Simply type the name from google earth into the checker to find the cache. Be careful with your projection since it is so far away. When you figure it out you may even see red!




You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
