Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at the listed coordinates. There is no need to go there. You must solve the puzzle below to get the coordinates of the cache.

This puzzle was formerly known as "Geocache Decathlon Event #8: The Outdoor Letterbox" and is a short outdoor letterbox styled cache – no stamp included. You are looking for a NANO that only has a really small log, so bring you writing utensil with you.

The Puzzle:
To start the letterbox style cache, go to the coordinates above and following the directions below.

The journey will start where others stop. Proceed from this starting location northeast to the small redheaded stepchild wearing the blue scarf. If you look around, you will see seven redheaded adults standing in a nice line. Proceed to the last person in line and scrutinize him/her for a number --- remember this number. Continue in same direction and turn right at the octagon. Take the 2nd left possible and proceed to the first little yellow “Pole”ish child. Count the number of yellow children playing behind this building and remember this number. At the southern most yellow child, project a waypoint of ((number the redheaded adult gave) x (number of yellow children playing behind the building ) + 158 ) degrees at 485 feet. If you've followed the instructions correctly, your success can be metered by what you're looking at.
