All Around Cal Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

ruddler: This was one of my favorite hides, but it already had to be moved twice because of landscaping. A cacher recently sent me a message saying they found the container and hid it for me. Most of the trees have been removed so I don't think I'll be able to hide it in the same place. Right now I do not have time to find a new hiding place for the final cache. So, I am just going to archive this.

Geocache Description:


All Around Cal

These are the coordinates for the first stage of the cache. All of the stages are in California, PA. So, you should be able to get to the main cache in under an hour. The cache is located at N40°04.A'   W079°53.B'

First, you must go to three seperate locations and obtain three different numbers.  

Step 1: Go to the Italian Club at N40°03.885' W079°53.847'.  There is a baseball field to the right.  Count the number of flag poles by the field.  That number is X.

Step 2: Go to monument at N40°03.937' W079°53.492'.  This monument is dedicated to the veterans of Vietnam, WWII, The Revolutionary War, and the Spanish-American War.  Find the date that the monument was restored.  You need all four digits of the date.  This number is Y.

Step 3: Go to David Szalay Community Park at N40°03.343' W079°53.418'. Find the sign that says how many acres were donated by  the heirs of Charles Campisi.

 Remember the number of acres.  This number is Z.
Calculate the final location:  A= y/x - 110z        B=66x+z3+3

Bring a pen!
When you get to the final location, there is metered parking. You get 15 minutes for a dime. This should be a pretty quick find so it should cost you 10 cents. After parking, you will need to cross the train tracks. There is a paved pathway that crosses over. In the interest of safety, use the paved path. There is a fence at the edge of the hill that leads down to the river. You DO NOT have to go over the fence and you DO NOT have to go down the hill.
Depending on the time of day, there might be muggles.
