Geocache Description:


You are in a very rural area. This cache is in memory and dedication to all those in the Police/Fire/EMS services which we all are proud of. Many years ago I watched a series called Emergency which on its own spurred the interest of many people who now have been dedicated in these services. We also want to memorialize and dedicate this cache to those souls who have fallen in the line of duty. I want to give them my gratitude of thanks. This cache is called “Remember Emergency?” This multi-cache will start you on its quest. The cache is not at the initial set of coordinates.

At the first set of coordinates you will see a theme related location.

There is a red box with a word on it.

Take each letter of the word and replace it with its number location from the alphabet (a=1, b=2 etc).

Add these numbers together. This will equal AA

There is a pole nearby with a number on it, this will equal BBB.

NOTE:Pole has multiple numbers, the pole number is the 3 digit number above the 1977.

Latitude is equal to N 45 18.CCC where CCC=AA+BBB+20

Next to the pole is a green communication box.

On the side of the box is a LARGE black sign with yellow letters and numbers in 2 rows (4 to each row).

If the row has a letter,convert that letter to a number as done with the red box letters.

Row 1 has 1 letter and 3 numbers and equals EE.

Row 2 has 2 letters and 2 numbers and equals FF.

Add all these numbers in the row to get your number.

Longitude is equal to W 122 16.DDD where DDD=EE+FF+796

Therefore the waypoint for the final cache is:

N 45 18.CCC W 122 16.DDD

Near your final location there is plenty of parking along the road but be careful of the traffic.

You should have no problem in figuring out where the cache is.

You are looking for a regular size cache.

This cache may contain a travel bug.

We loaded this cache with lots of goodies.

FTF will have some nice things to pick from such as a DVD of Emergency from Season 2 (has 8 episodes).

If you have any Police/Fire/EMS memorabilia to leave in the cache for others would be great.

men are there to protect, guard and rescue us. This geocache is to honor them.

Support this mission by taking this Travel Bug to remote, local and far away Fire Stations, Police Precincts and Ambulance Services.
