Geocache Description:

Jan 2014; This series has been updated and the order of the caches changed, check carefully that you have the correct co-ordinates.
Every cache in this series is a Puzzle/Mystery cache and the POSTED COORDINATES ARE NOT THE ACTUAL COORDINATES.

If you start at the Issaquah High School Trailhead, the hike will be approximately 5.5 miles with an elevation gain of 2200 ft., although you might want to consider the extra ¼ mile round trip to the nearby viewpoint. You can choose to do the series in sections or all at once, you decide. To complete the series you will need to first answer several questions and use the numbers in a simple formula to find ALL the North coordinates and the West coordinates of TMC #1. Then lace up your hiking shoes and head to the trail. The last 3 digits of the remaining West coordinates is written inside the front cover or on the first page of the cache logbooks.

For TMC #4, you will be looking for a Lock' n Lock. To calculate your Coordinates, use the numerical answer from the following question in this simple formula to replace ABC. The 3 digit number to replace XYZ can be found on the Cache logbook in TMC #3.

A Sonatina is a shorter and often lighter form of the Sonata, usually in ______ short movements (i.e., independent sections).
To get ABC, Multiply the answer by 100.

North: Posted Coordinates Minutes + ABC
West: Posted Coordinates Minutes= 59.XYZ

For Example:
31.876 + 100 = 31.976
