Geocache Description:

This cache is located in a Pinellas County Park, with very easy terrain.

In order to find this cache you must first go to the waypoint shown at the top of this listing. When you reach this waypoint you must find the fuel capacity of “The Little Bulldog”. Add 251 to that figure to come up with the last three digits of the next way point which is: N27° 48.195' W082° 46._ _ _'.

Go to the second waypoint and find the year that the park was dedicated. Take the year that the park was dedicated and subtract 1515 to come up with the last three digits of the last waypoint, which is N27° 48.308' W082° 46. _ _ _'. You may walk from the second waypoint to the west end of the parking lot and across the street to the entrance of a pedestrian trail to begin looking for the cache.

The cache is in a camouflaged shoe box container and is located on the North end of a SMALL clearing under the fronds of a palmetto. (Park Supervisor William Shaw is aware of and has approved this cache.)
