Geocache Description:

I have been into Multicaches lately. We don't have too many of them in town, but I still enjoy them. It is a break from the normal.

I decided for this one to use the techniques from a few stages of some of my recent multi caches
AT STARTING COORDS:
  1. Go to the parking waypoint. It is off of the main road and away from the construction!
  2. At the parking waypoint, you will find a stop sign with the street names. There is a magnetic strip behind the stop sign with the bearing and distance to the next stage.
  3. You can either project to the next stage, or you can actually use a compass to proceed to it. Much harder, but possible.
  4. Make sure that you use the POSTED coordinates when you project. If you use any other than the POSTED coords, you will not be able to go on to the next stage!!!
STAGE 2:
  1. Here you will find a power box.
  2. Obtain the number AB-CDEF(checksum of this number is 24) and do the math for the final as follows:
    T = B minus 2
    U = C minus D
    V = F plus 4
    X = F minus D
    Y = A minus 2
    Z = D
  3. Checksum for the letters you use in the northing (TUV) = 16.
  4. Checksum for the letters you use in the westing (XYZ) = 9.
  5. The final coordinates are N 39 30.TUV W 119 4X.Y4Z.
FINAL STAGE:
  1. Flare ammo AMMO can for the FTF!!
  2. Original contents include containers for you to take and hide the way YOU like to find them.
  3. On the inside of the lid AND on the log, you will find the number clue you need for the 'Hide What You Like To Find' Puzzle
  4. Please be sure to hide it at least as good as you find it. A cache this size needs all the cover it can get!
