Geocache Description:


This is a multi-cache located NEAR the Credit River.

Note: These coordinates are the approximate midpoint of the “Bike Along the Credit - Culmination” they do not represent a cache.

This is the final geocache of a five part series, with this being a three part multi-cache. The first four stages can each be done by themselves in any order. To find the fifth stage you need to retain the secret letter from the top of each of the first four caches.

I “Bike Along the Credit” daily. I have placed these caches near the Credit River where I bike.

Stage 1: Use the code letters that you must have obtained from the first four stages of the “Bike Along the Credit” in the following calculations to get the coordinates for this stage. This is a small camouflage container that contains coordinates for stage 2.
