Geocache Description:


The posted coordinates are fake. You will need to solve the puzzle below to obtain the final coordinates.

This cache is a tribute and thank-you to T-17 for all the great caches he has placed in the Pittsburg area.  I thought the posted coordinates were a fitting tribute to him with the 17.000 in both the north and west coordinates.


Puzzle

Answer the following questions and substitute the answers below to solve for the final coordinates:

aa: Add the last two digits of the year he started geocaching to the two digit number contained in his geocaching name

bb: The two-digit day of the month that he first started geocaching

N45 17.0aa W71 17.0bb
