Geocache Description:

Congrats to tlmeadowlark, Garyledbetter, Wareagle1995 and Branflakes on the Co-FTF!!!

The coordinates posted above are bogus! To obtain the correct coordinates for the cache, solve the following math problems and then use the answers to come up with the real coordinates. The form of the coordinates is: N 32 AB.CDE W 086 FG.HIJ


I attended AUM for about 8 years (Received a Bachelor's and a Master's while there). The bogus coordinates are AUM's Baptist Campus Ministries where I gave my life to Christ. It was an amazing time, but I had some pretty difficult classes! To find this cache, you will be tested on economics, calculus, imaginary numbers, number theory, and basic math. Good luck!
