Geocache Description:



** cache is not located at the posted coordinates **







The first stage is not accesible before sunrise or after sunset. Please honor this!







To find the cache, stop at the posted coordinates. There you should be able to find some rather obious dates on the bench. You will be required to do some math to figure out the X's and Y's for this set of coordinates: N 42° 54.XXX W 085° 31.YYY.

XXX = Look the first date. Take the first date and divide by 10. Add 495.

YYY = Look at the last date. Divide that number by 10. Subtact 63. - Discard any remainders.
