Geocache Description:

mag key final

This cache has been placed in imitation of RheS, who placed and owns the majority of this Series. I hope it is up to his standards.

==========================================================================
THIS IS A PUZZLE CACHE, THE POSTED COORDINATES ARE FOR STAGE 1
ONLY!!
==========================================================================

Dsykes and I recently rode past this piece of Big Art while doing the Boulevard Lakefront Tour bike ride, and I thought it might be a nice addition to the series. Come and check out the Opera Angel, then do some simple math to find the final.

At the posted coordinates, you'll find some art hanging off the side of the building. Count the number of bolts that secure the artwork's platform to the building (including bolts on the support arms), and call that number A. Also count the number of balconies on the Southern face of the building, and call that number B.

Multiply A by B, and call that number CD (hint: CD will be a two digit number).

Multiply C by D, and call that number EF (hint: EF will be another two digit number).

To find the distance in feet to the final, use the following formula: ((CD*D)+EF)+E

Travel at a bearing of 255 degrees true North.

Be sure to check out the other caches in the Chicagoland Big Art Series.
