Geocache Description:

A short multi-cache that will take you a couple of kilometres

The coordinates will take you to a sign with red and black letters on a white background.

WP1
Count the words in red letters, there will be four.

A = the # of letters in the first red word

A=

B = the # of letters in the second red word

B=

C = the # of letters in the third red word

C=

D = the # of letters in the fourth red word

D=

E = the total number of red letters in all four words add together to give a two digit number. E will be the first digit

E=

F = the 2nd digit for the calculation for E

F=

To get to the next way point you need to then apply those numbers as follows

S 44 2D.(D+E)-C-E
E171 1(B-C). A-(B+E)-(E+F)

Please note that the dashes between the numbers distinguish the separate calculations/numbers and are not minus signs.

WP2

At this way point, you will see another similar sign to the first one - but it is different.

The sign has only words in red letters and has four words at the very bottom of the sign. Those four words have a number of letters in them, reading left to right

W =

X =

Y =

Z =

The final is at

S 44 23. YW(W-Z)
E 171 14. (X+Z)Y(W-Y)

The cache container is a pill bottle and you will need you own pen to sign the log
