This is my first letterbox hybred so I am keeping it simple.

The stamp in the final IS NOT a trade item. Please keep it in there.

You will start at the posted coordinates.

You will walk straight along the path until you see a yellow post that includes the letters M and N. Once you see that, continue walking, you will then see a bridge. Cross over it and continue walking straight along the trail.

The trail has a bump in it? What is that? Concreate along the edges... Is it a man-hole? With another yellow post by it!? You keep walking along the trail. Out of the corner of your eye you notice a yellow line in between two trees. You keep walking wanting to find the cache...

You keep walking until you see something. A fence...

Nice job! You made it past the no-GPSr part. Now you will need to pull it out and use it to find the final.

The fence ends before the start of the trail your on. Look at the fence on the side of the trail without as many trees. One of the answers below has the correct coordinates and the others will lead you to somewhere with no cache.

How does the fence end before the trail?

1) It ends with a post. There are no rough ends or wires that run too long. Some would say its a perfect end. If that is the answer, then your coordinates are: N 39° 50.578 W 105° 10.465

2) If the fence ends in a circle shape where the wires ran way to long and coiled up at the end, your coordinates are: N 39° 50.588 W 105° 10.478

3) If the wire ended 2 posts before the last post, your coordiantes are: N 39° 50.608 W 105° 10.487

Good luck!

Message me if you need any help!

Congrats to Kroozer for being the FTF!

Followed the description- ish. (I think the letters on the yellow posts might be “MH” for “manhole”?) Tried all three waypoints but no dice. So frustrating!

I thought the directions were just fine the way they are. The fence was in one of the three conditions that you list. As I stood at the point where the yellow line is between the two trees, it was obvious to me what each condition meant.
I found the cache easily with the coordinates that fit the fence condition. I hadn't brought my stamp but I stamped my notes with the cute stamp in the cache.
Thanks for the fun! It was cool to walk along paying extra attention to my surroundings as I searched for the next landmark.

It was in good condition when I hid it. I will check it out soon and see if there is a different landmark I can use...

Headed out to cleanup some of the new caches recently published and hopefully get the DNF on this cache off of the list . Made it back out to GZ, and this time got down on my hands and knees to get a closer look after getting a nudge from a Kroozer. Wow!!! I guess my geo-senses were all caddywhompus on this cache hide. I guess the third time was a charm Wink. Very nice hide and camo, SL,TNLN,TFTC

Still scores a fav pt. even though it took 3 tries.

Seeing all of the recently published new caches in the area, we headed out on a mini caching adventure to clean them up. This was our second attempt at finding this one and returned with a hint and still could not come up with it. Strike -2. Expanded my search area to a 120 ft radius, still no luck. Hmmmmm! Must be a very small REGULAR.

Nicely done letterbox hide that earns a fav! Enjoyed the walk along the trail to this one! Signed a blank log FTF at 12:30 PM. Thanks for the new cache!
