I am NOT showing that video to PyroCat. Next thing you know, she will be
shooting who knows what in the air. No way. With an "A" in Chemistry, she
has access to all sorts of chemicals.....

Feet in the Air
-
Easy: Hide a cache in the anvil crater
Medium: Hollow out an anvil
Puzzle: Calculate the correct amount of powder to launch an anvil X
feet in the air. Given hurricane-force wind speed Y and a directly
vertical launch trajectory, calculate the number of feet from start
that the anvil lands (or calculate the required winds to move the
anvil a given distance). Use both calculated values to determine
latitude and longitude
Locationless: Have people launch their own anvil in order to log the cache.
Happy Hunting!
