This cache is not at the coordiantes listed above.
Final coordinates here: N 29° 44.919 W 095° 42.551.
The original puzzle had these coordinates listed in the attributes that you could see if you downloaded the picture and looked at the "properties". Attributes have now been removed from all images.
I recently had the opportunity to attent a WSFTFC event. Amongst
all the fun and conversation I overheard a discussion that
intrested me. It went something like this.
"Sometimes when I do not solve a puzzle cache I brute force it...I
go to the general area and look for the place that 'looks' like it
needs a cache. More often than not it is there!!!"
"That takes something special".
"It is true, occasionally you see a tree that screams for a
cache".
Well I was in GBP on a bike ride...ok..I was looking to score a few
caches...and I came across a tree that was screaming for a cache.
It was white. I am sure that many of you familiar with GBP will
know this tree. If not there is some info below that may
help.
After I took this picture I was about ready to head over to the
tree to find a suitable hiding spot and I remembered the rest of
the conversation duing the WSFTFC event.
"Yea, you see the tree and you hide a cache there....except for
(NAME REMOVED) who sees the tree and places the cache nearby in a
small bush to be sneeky.
Well I turned around after I took the picture of the tree and there
was a small tree. I placed the cache there, see it!!!
1. The cache in George Bush Park.
2. It is not too far from a trail/path.
3. I took the picture of the cache at 9:29am on the 5th of November
2011.
4. The cache is located west-ish of the tree.
Go get it!!!
