Geocache Description:


Part of a small series of caches placed within beautiful downtown Auburn Hills.

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. To get final coordinates, go to the posted location and you will be standing in front of a USGS Gauging Station. From here you will need to do a little math to get the numbers that you need.

Take the phone number's first 2 digits. Flip these numbers. Take the flipped number and subtract it from the posted north coordinates.

Now take the last digit in the phone number and add it to the posted west coordinates to get your new set of coordinates.

You are searching for a small lock and lock container.
