Geo-Mark = Geocache and Benchmark
Everyone enjoys a two-fer!

***Tribute to OrionStarr*'s The Lost Art of Benchmarking***

I decided to bring some attention to Benchmarks and Survey Markers around Douglas County. Especially ones that have never been visited until I found them for this series. I hope you enjoy them :)
For my final cache in this series, I decided to make it a Mystery. The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates; however, the Benchmark is. To find this cache you must figure out the real coordinates. Good luck!

The Benchmark can be logged here: KK1694

***Congrats to Flic for the FTF***

After a few hints from the CO I was able to complete this one. Nicely done. Signed log.

Thanks animjason for giving me a reason to get outside. It’s always worth it when you are enjoying nature. There is nothing better than acting like a kid again, digging through weeds and climbing trees, all to sign my name on a piece of paper.

Found with Cachly for IOS.

Today we finished the Mission Impossible series with @herndonrd @fearthefish and @WindAtMyBack . This was near the last of them for us. Looks like this area is being revamped, but the cache was still safely tucked into its hiding place
Tftc!

WOW!!! That was a hard puzzle to figure out, yes admittedly I needed help and direction from the CO. Loved every pain staking second of it. Definitely gets a favorite point.
Keeping our streak streak. Thanks for placing this cache and keeping our recreation going. SL/with PoshCacher. Tftc

With much help from the CO finally got the W coordinate. Very sneaky how it was hidden (maybe you should ask Jim Reeb if this could be Sneaky 3). Stopped by on my way down to Stellar Stables to pick up our daughter. Took the pathtag and left one of these "free" holiday travel tags.

Thanks for a nice puzzle and cache (and for the hint, he added sheepishly). Cache is in great shape. This is definitely not where I was looking on my previous, failed attempts. Left a pathtag. Smile

I solved this one a while ago with some help from the CO. Today I decided to find some caches in Parker and this one was on the list! TFTC.
