Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the coordinates listed above, but if you are hungry, you can eat Mexican food there.

This is the first in a series of four caches dedicated to people who spend too much time in front of the computer (you know who you are). All four are individual caches but you need to find the first three (in any order) before you get all the coordinates for the fourth and final cache.
The caches require computer/software/logic skills to solve.

This is the easiest of all the puzzles. Good Luck!!!

You are looking for a M&M tube with no swag inside, just a logbook.
Depending on your approach, it can be pretty steep - watch your step. There is parking within 300 feet.
Part of the puzzle coordinates for Cache #4 is inside; do not forget to write them down or you'll have to come back.

Links to the other caches in the series:
PB's PC Cache #2 - That was a long time ago
PB's PC Cache #3 - Know your colors
PB's PC Cache #4 - Fuzzy logic

The cache has moved but the puzzle stays the same. Just add .057 to the North coords and .032 to the West coords before using the coord checker.
