Do you know the way to 44.73'32 -63.689.48 ?

As you know, I love wandering the many trails through the woods at Jack Lake.

  

I stop often to marvel at the different kinds of fungi and lichen.



Shattered tree trunks fascinate me.



I'm just becoming aware of the many plants that stay green year round.















But  there is something special in the woods that I have seen before and wanted to see again.  

The magical hidden house.    

I'd stumbled upon it in the past but wanted to be able to find it again ...
on purpose ...
 and not just by accident.


So, the last time I found it, I noted it's geographical location on my Geo Tracker.  

It's coordinates were: 44.73'32   -63.689.48.

Thinking myself the cleverest of girls, the next time I went exploring I turned on my Geo Tracker only to discover that I couldn't figure out how to get it to show me my current location using latitude and longitude nor how to reach the hidden house.  

It was like having a street address but no road map!

Hence the title for today's post.







I went back yesterday to search again for the hidden house.   I remembered seeing some orange ribbons on trees in the forest but they didn't lead directly to the mystery house.  I wandered in circles in the general area and when I was ready to give up I glimpsed it through the trees. 

Let's hope I can find it again, no thanks to a stupid piece of technology.
