A Calculated Risk Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

iowaPete: Well, rats. [V] This park is supposed to be for hikers and bikers, but the new single-track design has pretty much taken over ALL of the paths that used to be for hiking. I'm sure hikers are still allowed to be out here, but I'm gonna bet dollars to donuts that anybody NOT on a bike is gonna be frowned upon by those who are biking. We'll likely be "in the way."

I've got a few ideas for another series in another location. Time to say goodbye to this one. Thanks to everyone who came out and chased it. It was one of the first puzzle caches I ever created and I was proud of the way it turned out.

Container has been removed. Zombie cachers should try a different cache....

Geocache Description:

Classic iowaPete container with trinkets located in the Interstate Power Company ground. A First-to-Find Geocoin was grabbed from another's cache. I've added it here to pass along to THIS cache's first finder. There is also a pathtag included for second-to-find.

Coordinates are NOT for the final cache location, but it's findable in the confines of the Interstate Power Company forest preserve. To find the coords for the cache, consider the North coords = N42 AB.CDE A= Asia minus Europe B= S. America squared C= Europe times 2 minus Asia D= N. America + S. America + Africa minus Asia E= Asia minus Europe + half of Australia. ADD TO THE WEST coordinates the following: [Asia times 100] + [N. America times Europe times Africa] + N. America + [Australia times 3].
