This is a geocache training course based on signs around the park, which take the cacher to points of interest in Riverfront Park, in Billings, MT. The set-up of this course was a component of a service project of a Boy Scout working toward his Eagle Scout rank.
The listed waypoint coordinates are for the parking area. Follow each of the clues to identify a specific letter on each of the signs at each of the coordinates listed below. The clues provide the cacher with interesting facts about the Boy Scouts of America. You will have to unscramble the letters identified at each sign. The word, once unscrambled, will be related to an honor earned by high ranking scouts, and is easily identified.
There is a hidden cache container. To find the final coordinates of the hidden cache, type the letters of the unscrambled word in order into the keypad of your mobile phone (bring one along to make this step easier!). Subtract 1443 from the number displayed on your phone screen.
The coordinates for the final hidden cache will be
N 45 44.764 W 108 _ _ . _ _ _ (Insert the number that was determined from the instructions in the above paragraph.)
Once you get to the coordinates, sit down and enjoy the view. The cache is a micro and blends well with its surroundings. It contains a log. Bring your own writing stick. It is right off the trail, so watch for muggles. There is only one place that a micro at this location can be easily found, so sit on the bench until you figure it out.
