Time for a Total Eclipse Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

jerdo: Sorry to say I have to archive this cache. Went looking to update, but one of the stops is full of wasps and not available, also the main cache is gone. I could not find it. Not sure if mugged, or placed where I couldn't see it. Several logs said it was several feet from where it should have been. So I have to remove this one. I was hoping to retrieve the main cache. But no luck. Thanks to all who enjoyed it!

Geocache Description:

This is a puzzle cache, you will not be able to solve it at home, you will have to solve it going to the cache site area.

You will need some time to do this cache!!! It's NOT A PNG at all. Once you are at the parking coordinates(listed above) you will need to walk or ride a bike. Please make sure you bring a pen and paper with you because you will need to write several things down to get to the cache.
This is my first attempt at this so I hope it works out ok.
Most of all have fun and be safe.

Ok let the puzzle fun begin.

After arriving in the parking lot from the coordinates listed, you will need to look for the monument that has the words "In Memory of Loved Ones" on it.

You are going to be going to these Coordinates;
N39 42.ABC
W084 01.DEF

You will need to fill in A B C D E F

A= Add the month listed plus the first and second number of the troop together. Month + first number troop + second number troop.

B= Count the benches around this monument and subtract the last number in the Troop.

C= The third number in the Year listed.

D= The number of flag poles plus a number on a sign. This sign is to the left of the monument down the bike path a short ways. Look for a green sign with a bike on it and a Number with the Letter A following the number. Use this number plus the number of flag poles.

Letter E and F you will need to go to the map just down the path from the green sign and look for the Bob Rhea Rock.

E=Look at the second year listed/Take the last digit and subtract the first digit.

F= Look at the first year listed/Add the first and third digit together.

You should now have a coordinates. This will take you to a micro cache, but you will still have more puzzle to do. Once you find this cache, look inside for more clues.
