Geocache Description:

A mult-stage cache in the Kent valley along the Green River Bike Trail.


Waypoint 1: 47° 23.345 122° 16.059

Find the year built. Z= add all the digits together, repeat and you have a single digit (i.e. 1492 = 1 + 4 + 9 + 2 = 16 = 1 + 6 = 7).

A= add the first two digits together.

Waypoint 2: 47° 24.543 122° 15.A2B

On the way into this, a sign lists the number of animals in the area. This equals C. The number of flights of stairs = D. The number of stairs in the last flight = Y. Enjoy the view. (If the gate is locked decrypt this

B= add the second and third digits and divide by 2.

hint: Hfvat qngr sgbz nobir, Q = ynfg qvtvg zvaif svefg qvtvg, L = svefg qvivg cyhf ynfg qvtvg.)

 

Waypoint 3: 47° 24.37D 122° 16.36D

X = the number of bike riders you always see here.

Look for an "86.?". E = the ?.

 

Waypoint 4: 47° 24.E15 122° 16.(E x 2)09

Find what is missing. The number of sides it had = F. Now solve these: W= C / (F * 10). V= Y - Z.

 

Final The cache is located at 47° 2X.BAW 122° 1Y.WVX.

The original cache site was in one of the best (in my opinion) sites for a cache - inside a hole at the base of three trees. It couldn't be seen easily, except from the right angle. That site is now about 6-8' underground due to new construction. The cache was recovered by Kent Police and returned to me.

The new location for the final is just about in view of the original one. It's a small Lock & Lock container.

5-8-12 I've made the hide a micro for now. It's at the same place as before. To account for the changes at wpt 4 I've adjusted the info/formulas.

You might want to search for other caches nearby (North), you'll pass 4 or 5 on the way.
