The coordinates are not the real coordinates of the cache. You
have to solve the puzzle below to get the real coordinates.
To start with, you have to complete the 10 X 10 numeric matrix
below. Once you have done that, you will find the coordinates of
the cache as part of a cross where P is the shared middle digit.
The latitude will be the three horizontal digits and the longitude
will be the vertical three digits. The final location is 27 1.APB'N
and 82 23.CPD'W. Out of the 64 possible combinations, only the real
one is unique within the matrix. For example, if P = the number in
row 6, column 2 (3), the final coordinates would be 27 1.334'N and
82 23.937'W (R) = Number of Jupiter's moons - 60 S = Ramesses the
Great was also known as Ramesses ?? (T) = Counties in Iowa with
populations > 120,000 (U) = Name of city at 34 10'24"N and 82
1'18"W - XC (V) = Theta's place in the greek alphabet (W) =
Smallest prime number (X) = Nitrogen's position in the periodic
table (Y) = Number of boroughs in New York city.
