This is the location of the NV State Seal located along Hwy 80 at the Truckee River Historical Marker. I've been offroading in NV since 96 and geocaching since 02. Seen most of these "treasures" many times.
Have been wanting to do this great locationless for sometime. This photo was taken on the way out of the Iron Mountain cache site a few weeks back during our efforts to complete the NV DeLorme Challenge. Thanks for a most excellent hunt, Rock&Crystal (Will upload the other pictures shortly)
The coordinate is for the location of the State seal, located in Nevada Department of Transportation in Carson City. Here are all of the required pictures:
We did Part 1, the state symbols, in April, but it took until today to come across a state seal and go find the flag. Email with the 13 state symbols is on the way to longwalker. Email with answers to Part 2 questions will go as soon as we upload this log. Three pictures are below. The coordinates above are for the Part 1 requirement.
Completed 11:15 a.m. - Caching our way to Buffalo, Wyo.
The coordinates above are for courthouse steps in Lovelock, Nev where we completed the third part of this cache.
We particularly enjoyed finding the Nevada State Seal as the Pershing County Courthouse in Lovelock, Nevada is being renovated and we were allowed to photograph inside the round courtroom of this court house. I believe it is the only round courtroom in the state of Nevada. The deputy in charge of the probationer doing the renovation painting told us that the mural on the wall behind the judges seat was also an official state seal so we included a picture of that also.
Thanks for the cache.

#778: Desperately tried to find this seal and now I know I wasted a lot of time since I found one on three different Nevada state markers. Well, this one was in downtown Las Vegas at the Grant Sawyer State Office Building. Uploaded the colors and the flag. TFT very challenging Cache!
I had fun driving around Nevada looking for all my symbols.
I picked a metal (N39 32.163 W119 45.397) & flower. I found the state flag at Washoe County Library & the Administration building for Washoe school district (N39 32.220 W119 48.598). And the State Seal taken at UNR (N39 32.183 W119 48.969). Thanks for the history lession.

We enjoyed a 5 day business/caching trip from Salt Lake to Vegas. It was a lot of fun finding these Nevada State Symbols. The coords listed are those of the State Seal which we found on a sign when we were in pursuit of another cache. The state flower was found all over Las Vegas but this particular picture was taken at ... 36 10.944...115 00.927. This was on a hillside on the east side of Las Vegas. The flag pictured was at Mount Luthern School - coord 36 09.146....115 18.957. The answers to the questions have been e-mailed.
See ya on the stream!
