Geocache Description:


the cache is not at the posted coordinates.

(this one is not located at the "coordinates of the day" either.)
_____________

you look around and see ten others. they each appear to be, like you, looking out at ten "others". what you have before you is a hendecagon! you measure the distance between you and your closest two hendeca-neighbors and discover that it is 8.7007 feet to either one of them. likewise, each of the other ten hendeca-nodes measures the distances between them and their two closest hendeca-neighbors and all the distances are identical: 8.7007 feet. one of the more "interesting" of the group notices that the area in square feet, ABC, of the undecagon formed by this group of hendeca-vertices is a prime number.

the cache can be found at: N 37 58.CBA W 122 28.ABC
_____________

or...

the cache can be found at: N 37 58.CBA W 122 28.ABC

where A, B, and C are three different single-digit values (i.e., each is between 0 and 9)

C is the largest of the three digits and B is the smallest.

the three-digit numbers ABC and CBA are both prime numbers.

the sum of A, B and C is greater than 8 and less than 19.
_____________

or...

if i were speaking in undecimal, i might say that the cache can be found at:

N 34 53.9A824 W 101 26.78875

but be careful with that one. (of course, if we all always spoke in undecimal, our latitiudes and longitudes would be defined quite differently, but let's not digress...)
_____________

it's your choice.

remember that the sum of one and one can be greater than two.
