Geocache Description:

This is our first attempt at a multi-stage cache. This is a 2 step cache. The container is not at the posted coordinates...at the posted coordinates you will find a benchmark disk. From this disk, you will need to do some simple calculations that lead you to the final location. Both locations are within walking distance of each other, and plenty of parking is available. The benchmark is located at the top of the flight of stairs.

This one you will be able to log a cache and a benchmark. Once you find the benchmark solve the simple problem to find the next set of coordinates for the final cache location. The final cache location is at:

N 40 02.ABC W 111 43.BDE.

Where....

A= the number of letters in the word stamped on the benchmark

B=the 2nd digit of the number stamped on the benchmark

C=ZERO

D=the 1st and last digits of the number added together

and
E=the 1st digit of the number stamped on the benchmark

Have fun and enjoy finding this quick multi-cache. E-mail me if you need hints.
