Geocache Description:

This is a multi in a park near my house that just needs more caches! Now it has many caches and many stages. You’ll need information from 8 signs in the park to find the final coordinates. When you’re done with all the stages including the final stage, the route you took should look roughly like an 8. Gr8 Scott!

FINAL COORDINATES
N44 4B.FEA W 093 2H.GDC

Stage 1: N 44 48.374 W 093 23.224 The sign here shows the rules of the park. The rule # which states that it is unlawful to ride a horse or any animal in this park minus 4 = A. Now that you've put your horse back, continue on.

Stage 2: N 44 48.315 W 093 23.270 There is a sign with a number here. The second digit = B

Stage 3: N 44 48.356 W 093 23.306 This sign has a reorder number: ODE - ####. The second digit minus the fourth digit = C

Stage 4: N 44 48.416 W 093 23.259 There is a number here. This number minus 4 = D

Stage 5: N 44° 48.471 W 093° 23.264 Somehow this sign has gone missing. So.... if you stand at this point, and look northeast, you will see a sign with multiple shapes of the same size on it. The number of shapes = E
If the sign here comes back, this was the original: There is a number here. The first digit plus the last digit = E

Stage 6: N 44 48.471 W 093 23.297 From here, if you look north, you can see a sign. The number of letters on this sign plus 2 = F

Stage 7: N 44 48.422 W 093 23.330 There are two identical signs here. The number of words on one of the signs minus 2 = G

Stage 8: N 44 48.394 W 093 23.296 The number of letters in the largest (font size not length) word on the radio frequency sign minus 3 = H

FINAL: Even though there are many hiding spots at the GZ, look for a larger micro (pill bottle).

Enjoy!!!!

Congrats to ThePurplePuppy and I Spy on FTF and I Spy's 4000th!! Got an email around 11pm as I was headed to bed with a question about the cache and decided to be a good CO (new at the CO role) and drive over to the park to answer questions in person. Walked up on them as they had just made the find. Raised the terrain rating a touch because of the maze of fences that could add to the walk and difficulity because of amount of hiding places at GZ. Great to meet people at one of my own caches!!!
