Can't find this aerocashe regardless what I try. Hint is 52 miles NEXT of Bettles. Since I have a VOR/DEM at Bettles I just did a perfect 52 mile circle around Bettles and the aerocashe sensor never even light up the 20 mile ring.

 

Help!

You might want to either Google or Bing "Ernie Lake Alaska" and look at the maps.  I don't specifically remember this one, but I know some of the lake caches were a little difficult for me to find too.

 

Or, look at Google Earth for Ernie Lake, AK.

I did the same thing! I stayed a bit closer to the VOR though and happened across the aerocache eventually.  I'm not sure how the description can be SO far off, but it's actually about 30 miles to the WNW of Beetles.

 

This is where I found Ernie Lake:

116.00 MHz

289 deg

31.4 NMs

Thanks guys. 31.4 ..... those  er      er    mmmm     er  ...... OK i'm calm now.

Thanks for the thread Heimi. I had forgotten about that one.

 

Moe - Glad you found it.

Fortunately there were not too many of these in Flight.  If anything, they tended to make them too easy, like the crashed plane at Nikolski Air Station right next to runway 8 !!
