Trilateration Cache Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Maestro di Musica: After some careful thought, I've decided to retire this cache. This is a great little park, but it can only hold (maybe) 3 caches and I don't want to hog the space. Hopefully someone will utilize this space soon and hide a new cache. Thank you to everyone who found the cache and for your wonderful compliments. I will reuse the concept in a later cache.
