Geocache Description:

Cache is located near the McKenzie River

The cache is not located at the posted coordinates, but within 3 kilometres distance from it.

In order to determine the location of the cache container, you must visit 5 different locations in the McKenzie River area to get information to calculate the final coordinates for the cache.

Locations to visit to get information to calculate the coordinates are listed in the "Additional Waypoints".

Details regarding the information (numbers), that you are to determine is indicated in each waypoint note. Use the Waypoints Prefixes to record the numbers that you found., i.e. "FH", "H2", HP", "MB" and "MI"

Final Cache Location is at:

N48° 3 "A". "BCD"

W088° 5"E"."FGH"

Once you get the information you need to solve for the cache location, calculate as follows:

"A" = 2*FH

"BCD" = (10*H2) + FH + HP

"E" = HP - (2*FH)

"FGH" = MB - (MI*MI*H2) + HP + (2*H2) + (5*FH)
