If you seek the cache, you must first find King Arthur's Tor. You need the Hint to learn the true composition of the Tor. Legend has it that at the winter solstice the Tor glows with an inner light that can be seen from afar. But modern seekers of pure heart can find comfort in its golden glow on most nights in the hours after sunset. You who are of pure heart must look for a soft, green place where dogs romp and birds sing. A place deep in the center of your being that is partially surrounded by high castle walls. Is it possible that you doubt, the very existence of this place? Is it not true that even the wicked and the unfocused have an inner core? The mountains are beautiful to behold but lead away from the shining Tor. The way there can be found in the languages of romance if your heart be not pure.
The Tor will give you the information you need to solve the following puzzle and obtain the correct coordinates of the cache. Solve for x and y.
N 37 17.x, W 122.02.y (These coordinates were corrected on 29 January 2005)
x = a + 705
y = a * b - 489
a = The number of horizontal bricks.
b = the number of vertical bricks.
