Geocache Description:

This is an offset cache located ENTIRELY on the grounds of Brown Recreation Center. Clues below will help you create the coordinates of the actual cache.

The actual cache is located just off the trails of Brown Recreation Center. Although the trail is slowly becoming overgrown, minimal BUSHWACKING is required to locate the cache (except to duck under the occasional fallen branch).

The cache is located at 36 00.abc N and 079 .47.def W. To find the values for a, b, c, d, e, and f, follow these steps.

a: The sources of two essential elements are visible from where you parked. Walk to the nearest source of water and set your compass to 280 degrees. Walk in this westerly direction toward a source of light. What number is on this fixture? (This is a)

b: Talking about water probably makes you thirsty. Find an outdoor water fountain. Once you're refreshed, look around and count the number of picnic tables you can see. (This is b)

c: If you're one to frolic, subtract the number of slides from the number of swings to find the value for c.

d: Walk back toward your car stopping at the center of the drop-off area. Standing by this tree, looking toward the door you see a number of signs related to parking. How many "No Parking" signs do you see? (this is d)

e: Identify the three-digit street address of the rec center. Multiply these numbers together to find the value for e.

f: Locate the big brown dumpster. It's been marked by 2 five-digit numbers. Subtract the number on the left from the one on the right. The difference is the value for f.

The cache is located at: (fill in the blanks in order with the values you've found):

36 00._ _ _ N
79 47._ _ _ W
