Big Wheel Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

Lumberjack Tom: The second stage is, indeed, missing. In checking on it I decided to archive the cache because the ambience of this site is no longer attractive. I see no reason to replace the missing container if the site is not compelling.

Geocache Description:

This is an offset cache which will have you gather information at the posted coords for the final cache, which is a camo-taped jar with a red snap-up lid.

The posted coords will put you in front of a large sternwheel assembly for an old-time riverboat. Between you and the wheel is a plaque. Gather information from the plaque to answer questions that will supply you with the two numbers necessary to fill out the incomplete coords below and make your way posthaste to the cache. Note that you should use the numbers in parentheses that follow the correct answers. Be careful!
