Geocache Description:

A relocated final cache from the original Dockton Cache, on Maury Island.

Updated! (May 2015) New cache container replaces the previous (11-year old!) plastic tube with a genuine Geocaching Pelican box.

This is a two-stage multi-cache. The first waypoint contains information which, using the information below, is used to find the final cache. The final cache is a Gepcaching.com Pelican box.

To locate this cache, follow these instructions:

  • At the posted coordinates you will find a plaque.
  • This plaque contains a date.
  • Write the date as numbers in the form M/D/YY.
  • Multiply the month and the day to obtain a 2-digit number.
  • Add this number to the 2-digit year.
  • This will give you a 3 digit number, "ABC".
  • Now, transpose the second and third digits of this number -- that is, arrange the digits as "ACB".
  • Substitute this number for the last part of the North coordinate: 47° 22.nnn'
  • Now, multiply the month and the year, and divide the result of this by 3. Then add 25.
  • Substitute this as the last portion of the West coordinate: 122° 27.www'

These coordinates lead to the final cache.
