NHFarmGal: Moved this one originally, to make room for a different cache, but decided to give up on it for now. Maybe someday I will make a similar cache.

Geocache Description:

***The Cache has been moved.***
Parking is located at these coordinates.
This puzzle is to test you on your knowledge of the elements in our universe.



Please use the parking coordinates provided. There is also another parking area by the baseball field on Route 102, if the small parking lot is filled.

The trail starts at the right-backside of the baseball field. If you park at the coordinates, you have to go through the gate to the field, to get to the trail. It is NOT where the pile of leaves/dirt/etc is. It does not matter which direction you start out, both come to the other trail you need to take. Depending on the time of year, there are muddy spots and you will be crossing some bridges.

I do not recommend finding this at night. The police are very watchful and the people that live nearby may not enjoy cars traveling by late at night.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The website provided (linked to under "User's Web Page") is where I got all my numbers. Always round to the nearest number, lower than 5 is rounded down (ie. 42.3 = 42), 5 and higher is rounded up (ie. 89.7 = 90).

AB*CD.EFG
HI*JK.0MN

AB- Silver's Atomic Number minus (-) 5
CD- Iron's Atomic Mass plus (+) 1
EFG- Calcium, Arsenic, and Krypton's Atomic Numbers added (+) together = Y. Y is then multiplied (x) by 5, plus (+) 8

HI- Mercury's Number of Protons minus (-) 9
JK- Neon's Atomic Mass minus (-) 5
MN - Zinc's Atomic Number plus (+) 1

You can check your answers for this puzzle on Geochecker.com.



For those that found this one before, go ahead and re-find it. It is in a totally different nearby spot!
