Each cache in the Green
Monster series contains one or two "monster
numbers" prefixed with "N" or "W". To determine the
coordinates for the "Green Monster -
Final" cache add up all of the "N" numbers and "W"
numbers.
For example:
Cache A - N +20° 10.000
Cache B - N +20° 02.000
Cache C - N +02° 00.300
Final lat - N 42° 12.300
Please keep a record of the monster numbers you find in the
Green Monster caches.
Consult
the Green Monster bookmark
list for all of the caches in this series.
One Week Headstart
In the interest of fairness, the owners of the Green Monster geocaches will wait one week
after the caches are initially published to begin seeking them.
If you are interested in participating in the Green Monster series by hiding a new cache in your
hometown (or anywhere in MA.), please join us! Email the owner of
the "Green Monster - Final" cache for
details. (Click on the owner's name at the top of the
"Green Monster - Final" cache
page, and select the "Send Message" or email address link in
the owner's profile.)
Note: The cache is not
hidden at the coordinates above
You need to solve the puzzle below to determine the
actual coordinates for the first stage of this nice one mile
multi-cache. There are many puzzle caches being published lately,
but few that require a decent hike. Understanding the pictographs
below will get you started on a pleasant journey in search of the
Green
Monster - Northborough
You can check your answers for this puzzle on
Geochecker.com.
There is roadside parking available at the trailhead, which is SE
of stage one. Please observe all private property markings and NO
stone walls have been considered for placement of any waypoints or
caches. This cache should be educational as well as fun for the
whole family.
