Geocache Description:

A peaceful multicache along a 1.6 mile loop. Clues are on signs along the Bol Park Bike Path in Barron Park, and they must be found in order to derive the final hidden location (don’t worry—it’s very close).

It’s a small cache—a tube about an inch in diameter and five inches long.

The path is near a high school, and muggles are SURE to be around in the morning and afternoon before and after school. Be careful. Good luck!

Clue #1: 37º 24.718, 122º 08.391
A=Number of words on sign.

Clue #2 [Sign was stolen, so this clue was changed 2/12/05]: B = # Letters in the alphabet.

Clue #3: 37º 24.412, 122º 08.240
The quote’s author has a last name that sounds like a material. Think of what is most likely to be made of that material. If it’s a TREE, then C=0. If it’s a TRACTOR, then C=5. If it’s a TURTLE, then C=9.

Clue #4: Take about 50 paces South East.
Count the number of letters before the punctuation mark. D=that number + 1.

Clue #5 [edited on Jan. 29th, 2005]: E = 3 x (Pi, rounded to the nearest whole number).

Clue #6: 37º 24.331, 122º 08.093.
Count the number of letters in the word where every one is capitalized. F = that number – 1.

Final Destination:
37º 2A.BC, 122º 0D.EDF
