Geocache Description:

Everyday hundreds and sometimes many more hundreds of cars drive in and out of Point Roberts and also for quite some time I have always wondered why there wasn't a cache nearby for people to grab as they come and go from Point Roberts. On some days the line up to get into Point Roberts can stretch all the way down the hill and other days there is no line up at all.

Now this cache is NOT in Point Roberts but it is very clearly, once you have solved the puzzle, inside Canada. So you want to make sure if you are coming from the USA side that you have come in through the legal way.

I designed this cache to be a nice little challenge and a possible way to kill some time if you are stuck in the line up.

The cache is obviously not at the posted above coordinates but it is somewhere else. In order to find this cache you must answer the following questions that are listed below.

The coordinates that you will be wanting to have to find this nice little cache are:

N 49° 00.ABC W 123° 04.DEF
_____________________________________________

To get the North Latitude:
2 x 15 - 29 + 1 = A
50 / 2 + 5 - 12 + 2 / 5 - 4 = B
1 + 9 x 4 - 28 + 2 - 10 = C

To get the West Longitude:
1 x 1 + 0 = D
15 x 10 / 15 - 10 = E
9 - 4 + 2 - 3 / 2 + 5 = F

______________________________________________

Once you have found the cache please re-hide it exactly where you found it in its concealed location. You will have to be careful not to be spotted because this road can be very busy with people traveling to and from Point Roberts.

Otherwise Happy Caching!

Congratulations to Adroit Seeker in getting the FTF!!!
