PARK (& grab?) Series: PRAIRIE HEIGHTS Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

DTCBEARSnMATHMATE: Something happened to one of the signs, and not sure if it will be replaced. The area of the hide location is no longer being mowed and is quite different now (a jungle). This cache has had a good run, but we decided to pick up the container today and are archiving it.

Geocache Description:

I'm placing this ‘PARK (& grab?) Series’ of geocaches to bring geocachers to a few of the less-frequented Davenport Parks.


* THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES ! *


Bring your own pen.


If this park is too ‘busy’ (which it sometimes is), please return at another, less busy time to avoid over-inquisitive non-cachers, and/or to prevent the cache from being muggled. BE STEALTHY and HAVE FUN!


To find the Location of the Final Cache, visit each of the SIX 'Clue' waypoints, collect the required information at each of those specific locations, and fill-in/substitute the numbers you calculated for A, B, C, D, E, & F in the Final Cache's coordinates formula below. Then go find the 'Final'!


N 41 34.ABC W 90 33.DEF



At Clue 1: A= (The total # of Letters in the 1st WORD of the TITLE) MINUS 3


At Clue 2: B= (Which row/line on the sign is the word "green" first visible.)


At Clue 3: C= (The SUM of all visible numeric digits in the 'text' portion of the sign (not the photo). Add each individual numeric digit of each of the larger numbers together to get a total. THEN SUBTRACT 5 FROM THIS TOTAL.) [Example: If you see 123 and 456, add 1+2+3 + 4+5+6 together which would equal 21, then subtract 5 from 21.]


At Clue 4: D= (The total # of LARGE ROUND RINGS FOUND IN A HORIZONTAL ROW ON THE GROUND, MINUS 9.)


At Clue 5: E= (The total # Letters in the 4th WORD of the TITLE)


At Clue 6: F= (The total # of times the word 'absorbs' is used.)
