Geocache Description:

Another in a series of caches to highlight some Newmarket trails.

This multi will require some basic math to get to the final. This final is a film container. You will need a writing tool to sign the log.

The posted coordinates will take you to Stage 1. At Stage 1 there is an impressive arch over a bridge (... remember this is Newmarket so impressive is relative to that). Across the top beam of the arch is engraved a word. Take the alphabet positions of the first two letters and multiply these numbers. Divide the product by 1000 to get Z. For anyone not following the above here is an example. If the first two letters were B & C, then 2 * 3 / 1000 = .006 = Z.

Final minutes:
North = 3.737 + Z
West = 29.984 - Z

Remember the name of this series is Newmarket TRAILS. Please keep the bushwacking to a minimum to preserve the forest.

The recommended path to the Final is to follow the paved trail (... over the bridge and through the arch....). Just before leaving the forest to the containment pond, there is a un-paved trail heading left (west) off of the paved trail (stay in the forest). Head down that trail and now you are on your own to pick the best route.

Total distance approx. 2 K depending on which paths are taken.
