Geocache Description:

May prove a little difficult to follow the route if the snowfall has been heavy.

Park and enjoy the journey to the cache. If snow is too deep, walk in the lane and leave vehicle on the road side.
1. Count the number of "S's" on the small left hand railing to find the missing digit for the N coordinate.
The number of "Posted" circles on the large gate on the left will give you the missing digit for the W coordinate.

N 43 10.0_0
W 080 54.1_0

2. If you are a "Gamblin" man or woman and want to continue this journey, the "Smart Surfer" has your next clue.
The last 2 digits of the birth year will give you the missing digits if you divide by 2 (loose the .5)

N 43 09.9_ _
W 080 54.162

3. Find the micro cache hidden here to get the coordinates to your next stop.

4. Lady McKay
William Sr.'s age when he died will give you the missing digits for the N coordinate of your next stop.

N 43 10.0_ _
W 080 54.098

5. Trail Head
From here follow the trail to the final destination. No bush whacking required. To get the coordinates for the cache:
Add the number of "S's" to the number of "Posted" circles, plus the last digit of the birth year found at stage 2, plus 1, to get the last 2 digits of the N coordinate.
Take William Sr.'s age at death and subtract 22 times the last 2 digits of the North Coordinate for Lady McKay. This total will determine the last 2 digits of the West Coordinate for the cache.

N 43 10.0_ _
W 080 54.0_ _
