Geocache Description:

This is a single redirect multi that is located in the JACK PINE TRAIL system in Bells Corners. Parking is at P9. After doing some simple basic math calculations,the cache can be located less than 200m from the parking lot, along a well established trail system. There is a very short bushwack from the trail to the cache. No swamp, although the area may be a bit wet in the Spring I suspect.

From the parking lot, proceed to the main trail, passing by the three large rocks that guard the entrance to the trail. Very shortly after entering that trail you will see a three sided information board. All the information you need to get to the final can be found on this board. Below, on this cache page, you will find a list of all the English Headings. You will need to find the last word, in each of these sections.

Once you have all the "last words" add up the number of letters in ALL the last words, resulting in a two-digit number, we will call A. Just as a check for you, the DR of A is 9. Next, ADD 100 to A, which will give you a three digit number we will now call B.

To get the coordinates for the cache, do the following simple malth calculations.

For the North coords, ADD B to the right of the decimal of this number: 17.534

For the West coords, SUBTRACT B from the right of the decimal of this number: 49.095
