Geocache Description:

Posted hours are: Summer 9am-7pm Winter 9am-5pm but might be open earlier.(See first log)

The SQ in the cache name above signifies Spirit Quest, a project to distinguish those caches that are set in cemeteries or memorial gardens. Please be respectful of the area, and observe their rules and posted hours, Michigan law states that you are only permitted to visit cemeteries dawn to dusk through out the state unless other hours are posted.

The posted coord's will get you to the entrance of the cemetary. Enter it and proceed straight until you see the WEBER CRYPT to your right. This would be a good place to park for now. Walk up to the crypt and stand at the Southeast corner of it. Look Southwest to the next section and see a hugh pine tree. Walk toward the pine tree and find the FORTAIN gravesite. On the FORTAIN HEADSTONE you will find a lot of names. You will only be working with the first names for this puzzle. Last names don't count. Starting at the upper left, the first name will be "A". The next name to the right will be "B", and so on until you get to the bottom right name which will be "J".

Now the puzzle and some math. Also a 10 will be a zero.

Your new North coord's are: A,A/2,B/2,H,H,I,D

Your new West coord's are: H,F,E/2,J,J,B,C+1,I-D

You may now return to your vehicle and go retrive the Final.
