Go FISH ! Multi-Cache
pamap: Coming up on SIX Years for this one, time to put it to rest for more reasons than one and to give someone else a chance to place a CREATIVE CACHE in this NICE PARK.
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

This cache is located at "SIMPSON PARK" along the meandering Yellow Breeches. It has a nice walking path, picnic facilities and a great place to launch your canoe or kayak for a scenic float trip down the Breeches.
This is a 3 Part Multi that will not require much walking and no bushwhacking, but will test your observation & caching skills to the fullest. As with all PARK hides, you might encounter a few Muggles, but Stealth will NOT be an issue most of the time. All phases of this cache are hidden within a short distance of the Parking Lot and would be an excellent one to tackle on a day when it is just too Hot & Humid for a long hike deep into the woods. NO NIGHT CACHING permitted per Park Hours Posted.
Proceed to the posted co-ordinates and look for some FISH - NO climbing is required to find any of the FISH (Terrain is 1.5 for this cache). Once you have determined the total number of fish at this location, you will need to multiply your catch total to the following number that you now need to calculate. This number can be arrived at by finding one of two Metal Plates (one is easier to read) at this same location that has a 11 character string that precedes the website address: "playlsi.com". Once you have found this number, it should be come clear to you what the numbers and letters are. You will now need to convert the 6 letters to their equivalent numeric values and then calculate the SUM of the 11 numbers. NOW, multiply your SUM of the 11 numbers by the number of FISH that you found and subtract 37 from the product. This is the distance in FEET to Part 2, but I forgot to record the BEARING !?!? Since BEARINGS can get very confusing with issues such as using True North vs Magnetic etc. I’ve decided to NOT provide a BEARING. Almost ALL Geocachers have Magnetic Personalities and I’m sure that you can find the location for Part 2 without any additional information. You will find the last bit of information you need to get to the Final Cache container at this destination.
I was half tempted to remove the above statement about NO Bushwhacking required since the grass was getting really HIGH, but the Township came to the rescue today and you should now have smooth sailing. Enjoy & Good Luck
Bring your own Fishing Rod :-) & a Pencil
