Geocache Description:


This cache is dedicated to the state in which Mr. G was born – North Dakota. Now, North Dakota has the fewest geocaches out of any state in the union -- only 621 (as of 7/18/08)– a few hundred less than the next lowest state. This ranks it somewhere between Luxembourg and Estonia in number of caches.

North Dakota is also reportedly the least touristed state in our great country. Maybe after completing the research required for this puzzle, you’ll find yourself intrigued by the state and want to visit. Hey, it’s possible!

Get the coordinates by finding the answers to the following questions:

The number of the state highway that runs through this “wunnerful” band leader’s hometown = AB

The height of the state capitol building (to the nearest foot) = CDE

The number of Division I men’s ice hockey titles won by UND (as of 2008) = F

Number of home runs hit in a single season by this North Dakotan* when he set the record = GH

The combined heights of the world’s largest Holstein cow, sandhill crane, catfish, and buffalo – all of which can be found in North Dakota! = IJK

Difference between North Dakota’s record low temperature and record high temperature (one of the biggest differences in the country) = LMN

Let B + K = P

Let D + E + H = Q

Let L + M = R

Let N + J = S
