Welcome to the Simi Valley Town Center. Ever since the opening of this new mall back in Oct 2005, I've had the idea to place a couple multi-caches here at the mall. This multi will give you a brief tour of the outer parts of the mall and surrounds of the parking area. My Simi Valley Town Center Multi #2 provides a brief tour of the interior of the mall. Neither require you to enter any store, just simply enjoy the beauty of the area and the architecture of the mall.

This multi encompasses 12 waypoints to solve the coordinates for the final cache. At each waypoint, you will find a number. Enter that number into the chart below as you visit each waypoint. Once you have all the numbers (be sure to do the simple math on those that have such notes) the final coordinates are solved by entering those numbers in order as indicated below the chart. The final cache is near the mall, so you can easily drive to each WP then to the final.

In an effort to make things easier, the 12 waypoints are available for download through the site as child waypoints. If you click the GPX exchange file (premium members only) button at the top of this page, you can download that file complete with all 12 waypoints. You can get the same waypoints from any pocket query. Just load these into your GPSr and save yourself the time of entering them manually. GSAK and other programs support child waypoints and can automatically load them for you.

Don't let the 12 waypoints discourage you from attempting this cache. If you pre-load all the WPs before attempting this cache, it can be done in 20 minutes or less. I think you'll find this multi-cache concept rather unique and fun to do. Have fun and enjoy!

Had tons of fun doing this multi. We are pretty sure that people thought we were crazy if they were watching us. TFTC!

This was a fun challenge. I liked the way we had to find the numbers - pretty cool. With all the driving back and forth, I'm glad we were in Big Eagle's Prius. This would be a good cache do to on a bike. Thanks for the hide. TNLNSL.

TOHiker and I played bumper cars this morning. Except for the car sickness it was fun. He ran the GPS and navigated while I drove. We held our respective breath when it came time to go for the final, but all worked fine. Thanks for the challenge.
