Geocache Description:

** The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates **


In order to obtain the EXACT coordinates you must first figure out the following puzzle.  Each letter of the alphabet has been given a different integer value between 1 and 26.  Three numbers have already been entered into the solution. 

Most of the remaining letters have an arithmetical clue shown below them which equates to the numerical value of the letter.  Use the clues and your reasoning powers to match each letter with its correct numerical value.

Once you have the puzzle figured out, take the value (U x Y) in the form .XXX and subtract it from N 42° 01.469 to obtain the N coordinate.  To figure out the W coordinate take the value (P x R) in for form .XXX and add it to the W 083° 56.050. 

The puzzle is easier than it looks once you get started.  Have fun!
