Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT found at the given coordinates! You will need to solve the puzzle to find the correct coordinates. Remember to check in the cache for the clue to the final cache (GC2G4V4) on the logbook.

One of the two languages that I needed to learn in seminary was Hebrew (and it was NOT a pleasant experience). When I was looking for just one more number system to use for this series, my husband looked online to see if there was a Hebrew numbering system. Surprise! There is!

Remembering that Hebrew reads from right to left, here are your coordinates for the cache. You will need to convert the degrees, the minutes, and the decimal portion each separately:

Here is a recommended website to use to help with the Hebrew numbering system.

Please observe the terrain ratings. This cache is in an area with a steep downslope, uncertain footing and may be quite wet at times. When the cache was placed, it was completely dry, but this area is lowland and can get quite wet. Permission to hide a cache here was given by Patrice Hoeschele, CEO of the Hartford Area Development Corporation.
