The cache is not at the posted
coordinates.
It's been 1 1/2 years in the making and it is finally
complete.I tried placing this cache a few times, but
mostly ended up fixing the series. My first hike attemp to hide
this ended badly with me only getting up 1/2 way. I wasn't feeling
well, but thought I could still do it. Now it is up there. And I
mean up there. Your best bet is to get a helicopter. No trails to
this one. It's all bushwhack. Yes, I did want this one to be harder
than the others. I just wasn't thinking it would be as hard as it
is. Hopefully you have gotten into good shape by getting the other
caches in this series. Give yourself time and take water and you
will be able to make it to the cache.
From up here, you can look down and see the area where you have
been caching. I hope you enjoy it.
The Eagle Scout Rank is the highest rank a scout can earn. Only
about 2 percent of those that join scouting earn this rank. I'm
hoping that a higher percentage of finders of this cache series
will make it to this cache.
An Scout must earn the ranks of SCOUT, SECOND CLASS, FIRST CLASS,
STAR and LIFE before earning his EAGLE. (I expect you to find these
Rank caches before finding this final.) A scout must also earn 12
(or more) required merit badges and 9 (or more) elective merit
badges before earning his EAGLE. (I expect you find the equivilent
Merit Badge caches also.) The final thing a scout must do is to
lead a service project.
To log this challenge cache you must find a Cache to
Eagle cache (representing an Eagle Scout's service project) AND you
must have participated in a CITO event.
To find this cache perform the requirement above and find the
answers to these questions and then build the coordinates
N AB CD.EFG W STU VW.XYZ
Review the requirements for this merit badge and use the
requirement number for the answers.
A =Value of 'C' in the STAR cache?
B = Value of 'Z' in the FIRST CLASS cache?
C = Value of 'B' in the TENDERFOOT cache?
D = Value of 'B' in the SCOUT cache?
E = Value of 'B' in the LIFE cache?
F = Value of 'A' in the SECOND CLASS cache?
G = Value of 'Y' in the TENDERFOOT cache?
S = How many of my sons are Eagle Scouts? (I know, I am
bragging.)
T = How many sons do I have? (another guess needed)
U = How many of my grandsons (future Eagle Scouts) will be born
around my birthday in October 2010?
V = Value of 'A' in the SCOUT cache?
W = Value of 'X' in the STAR cache?
X = Value of 'D' in the TENDERFOOT cache?
Y = Value of 'Z' in the SECOND CLASS cache MINUS
Value of 'A' in the LIFE cache?
Z = Value of 'Z' in the FIRST CLASS cache?
