Geocache Description:


Today I loaded up the bike and made a list of a bunch of caches that I planned to grab along this trail. Many on my list were part of the Jar-Jar series by eyeseeit.

Unfortunately, I did not factor in the recent rain and the current level of the Des Plaines River before I came. I knew my day was done when I came to a bridge that was under water and not passable (see below).

In total, I found 6 caches today (only one jar-jar).

Before Leaving, I did find a spot to place a cache and decided to make it a multi. At Stage 1, you need to use your brains and at Stage 2, your muscles (and climbing skills just like a typical eyeseeit hide).

The posted coords will bring you to two signs on a post. The signs are different colors.

Here are the numbers you need to get the coords for the final.

A= The number of letters for the color of the top sign

B= The number of caches I found on the day I hid this cache

C= The number of letters in the word about what you are to do with horses and bikes.

D= The number of letters for the color of the bottom sign.

E= The number of letters in the word that is followed by an exclamation point!!!!!!

F= The number of letters in the word describing the surface

OK...Now for the Math.



Take the posted North coords and add the number you get from this equation:

A x B x C + 17



Take the posted West coords and add the number you get from this equation:

D x E x F - 24



If I did this right, you will now have the correct coords for the final. It is not too far away but be prepared to climb.
