Seattle Bell FTF Trilogy Series
This is cache #3 of a trilogy setup by DrTusk and Shaddow to pass along the Seattle FTF Bell. In order to claim the bell you must be the first to find the third cache. In order to find it, you must find the second cache in the series, and to find that one you must of course find the first cache.

Each of the caches presents a specific type of challenge:
1. Puzzle
2. Terrain
3. Camouflage

Each cache is focused on the specific challenge and the remaining aspects are minimized. For example, step one requires quite a bit of mental dexterity however the terrain and camo are relatively easy and simple. The remaining two are similar in that one aspect is more difficult while the other two are relatively minimal.

The caches are:
1. Double Trouble GC22WVK 4.0/1.5
2. Why? GC22WVM 1.5/3.5
3. Camo Punk GC22WVN 4.5/1.5

As noted above, your reward for being first to solve and find all of the caches in the trilogy will be the Seattle FTF Bell. After that? Personal satisfaction will have to do…

The Cache
A camouflage cache that may fluster the most patient mind. Or it might rather be quite simple to the astute or lucky. Either way the search area boundaries should be fairly obvious.

To find this cache take the code word found in Why? GC22WVM and use the information below to determine the coordinates. Find the cache first and you will be rewarded with the Seattle FTF Bell. Later finders won’t receive the bell but can at least soak in their well-earned accomplishment.

Cache #2 in this series contains a logbook phrase. The last word has 8 letters (ABCDEFGH).
Convert each character into the number value (A=1, B=2, etc).
Complete the following equation to reach the final.
N 47 34.(C*D)+(A*E)+A+B+H
W 122 22.(D*F)+(F*G)+A+D+H
