PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!
Below you will find three links to the caches for the “Picnic in the Pines” event.
Each link should open as a new tab in your browser once you click on it.
Once open, in the top center of the page (depending on the browser you are using) there are options to either print, download or more actions.
1) I suggest for the PDF file you print it if you want to have the details on paper with you.
2) For the GPX file you MUST download this file and save it to a directory on your computer where you can go back and find it (ie your desktop). Once downloaded you can now move that file from your computer to you GPSr.
3) The last file is a PDF map overview of where all the caches are located You can print this as well if you wish. Hopefully this will make it easier for you to choose a starting location.
