The numbers 6 and 10 have a peculiar mathematical relationship. The
difference between their cubes is a square and the difference
between their squares is a cube.
Although this relationship is unusual, it is not unique. There is
also one pair of three digit numbers that have this same
relationship. Identify those three digit numbers. Use the smaller
of the two numbers to replace the decimal ‘abc’ in the north
coordinates and use the larger number to replace ‘def’ in the west
coordinates. There, you will find the cache.
N 42*08.abc
W 088*02.def
This forest preserve can be thorny, but the immediate area of the
cache is clear. Pick your approach carefully.
