Geocache Description:

Easy P&G esp on a rainy day; or at night. That is after you have solved the puzzle. The difficultly could change depending on how computer and math savy you are!

I love themed caches; so I decided to plant one of my own. The name of this cache says it all. It is filled with all types of bracelets. Please trade with in the theme.

I am currently taking Anatomy and Physiology II as part of my degree plan, Nursing. I've learned alot of neat, random things. What a better way to share these with my fellow geocachers, than making it a puzzle to get final cords? This neat fact actually came from Anatomy and Physiology I.

The cords above will lead you to near by parking. To get the final cords you will have to answer one question and then just a few math problems.

All bones in the human body articulate with at least one other bone; except one. What is the name of this bone?

Now here's the important part:
N 32'43.ABC
W 097'07.XYZ


Take the number of letters in this word [notice word isn't plural] and do the following somewhat simple math problems.


We will call this unknown number of letters: #
A= # - Only Even Prime Number
B= # + [square root of M (cubed root of 729=M)]
C= # + 3

X= # + [Only even Prime Number]²
Y= # - square root of 25
Z= # + 1


For Example: If the answer was the Frontal Bone; # would equal 7.

Don't use the word "bone" to determine the #.

You may notice when you open this container it smells like berries; if you've ever had a CT scan done you may know what this is!

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.



Hint's are real spoilers!!!

Good Luck and Happy Caching!

Remember: Have fun; because THAT is what it's all about!

Congrats to CampinCrazy FTF!
