Geocache Description:

***THE ABOVE COORDINATES ARE FOR PARKING, NOT THE CACHE***
***BELOW ARE INSTUCTIONS FOR THE MATHMATICAL PUZZLE***

THIS CACHE IS PART OF THE RHYME TIME FINDS SERIES

The cashe is currently a rubbermaid container that is black. In the near future, if the seal proves not to be water-tight, I will replace it with an Ammo Box.

The cache is located off the end of the Buzzle Road (hence the title), in the "Buzzle Tree Farm". The cache is in the tree farm, about .3 mi from where you park. The last 100-200 feet are made for easy bushwacking (its a tree farm)

It should be easily found even in the snow, but if we have more than a foot or so on the ground it will get tricky. Near the spot there is an absolutely huge pine tree that has cut marks around the base (to kill it). Its near the tree but not in it... or is it.....

*FOR THE PUZZLE*
When you arive at the parking you will see a sign. The sign is made of wood and has three words in red paint on a white background. This sign is your key to finding the seconds portion of the coordinates. You will need to sove the puzzle when you are there, so bring a calculator and print this screen to have the formulas. Good luck.

The coordinates are as follows: N 43 18.ABC W 070 35.DEF

A = ((6+9)/3)-1
B = (12^3)-(5+7)
C = 1+2-5+9-2-3

D = (10^3)-(5+7+7+10)
E = (((7*9)/11)/3)-6
F = (A+B-3)-(((B*D)/12)-B)

The math has been checked and its now up to you.
