Geocache Description:

A 4 stage multi-cache with the final stage consisting of a camouflaged plastic jar with various small items inside.

This multi will take you to different areas around Woolmarket in order to get the coordinates for the next stage. Total driving distance from Stage 1 to the final stage should be around 2 to 3 miles. For the first 3 stages of this, you may not even need to leave the car. The final stage will be a wooded area along a small road that doesn't see much traffic. The coordinates for the first stage will bring you around Eagle Point where you will be looking for a sign that has a day and night phone number posted.

Stage 2 coordinates: N 30 AA.BCC W 088 DD.EFG

DP = Day Phone
NP = Night Phone

AA = (first 2 digits of DP - 3rd digit of DP) / 5th digit of DP + 2nd digit of NP
B = last digit of NP
CC = (first 3 digits of NP / 7) + 2nd digit of NP - 3rd digit of NP
DD = 2nd digit of NP * 4th digit of DP + 6th digit of NP
E = 6th digit of NP - 6th digit of DP + first digit of DP
F = 6th digit of DP * 4th digit of NP
G = 1st digit of NP * last digit of DP - 3rd digit of NP

Once you are at stage 2, you will be looking for the numeric address of the building you are in front of.

Stage 3 coordinates: N 30 28.ABC W 088 59.DEF

A = 3rd digit - 1st digit + 2nd digit
B = last digit
C = 3rd digit - 2nd digit - first digit
D = first digit
E = 3rd digit - last digit + 2
F = 2nd digit + last digit

Stage 3 will bring you to my old elementary school. You will be looking for an address here as well.

Final stage coordinates: N 30 27.ABB W 088 59.CDE

A = (last digit + first digit) * 2nd digit + 4th digit
BB = first 3 digits / 3rd digit - 3rd digit
C = 2nd digit + 3rd digit + 4th digit
D = 2nd digit * 3rd digit - first digit
E = 2nd digit

Once you are at the final location and once you find the cache, you still aren't finished. There is a 3 dial combination lock attached with the combination taped to the back side. The combination is also a puzzle and for this you will need to remember details from each of the previous locations that you visited such as other signs close by, colors, or even names of the places. Without the required information, you may need to revisit some of the previous stages so make it a point to remember as much detail as possible from each spot, or bring a camera :)

Once you have the numbers needed for the combination, it will be up to you to figure out the order they go in. It's only 3 dials so it shouldn't be too hard. Please reset the dials to 0,0,0 afterwards also to keep it challenging for the next cacher.
