Geocache Description:

A chance to travel from Abbotsford Airport to LAX and back in record time and at rock bottom prices! The posted coordinates are for stage 1 of a 3 stage multi. The cache (stage 3) is a small L & L container with logbook, pencil and goodies. FTF has first choice without having to trade. Please pay attention to how stage 1 and 3 are hidden and please rehide in the same spot. As always please use stealth when muggles are around.

The posted coordinates will take you to the starting point where an aircraft will be waiting for you. To reach the second stage you will have to do some easy flight calculations and drive your cache mobile or fly your geoplane a short distance to N 49 00.XXX W 122 21.YYY.
XXX = the 3 digit number on the eagle + 563. YYY = the sum of the digits below the Canadian flag x 27.

When you reach this location - you're now at LAX - you'll have to answer the following question correctly to obtain the the next set of coords:

Who lives in the mansion across the street:

Wiens N 49 00.692 W 122 21.270
Froese N 49 00.542 W 122 21.320
Romachuk N 49 01.656 W 122 21.614
Janzen N 49 01.346 W 122 23.846

Note: You do not have to disturb the owners or access their property to find the answer.

The correct coords will direct you to stage 3 where the cache is hidden. This is another short drive/flight on your way back to YXX or thereabouts depending on the weather. Have a good flight!



Everyone is prepared for your arrival!



Congrats to CURNEW on your FTF!
