Geocache Description:

This is a three part multicache that is going to require math. Not serious math just basic math. Before I get started you might want to get values for each letter of the alphabet. For example, a=1, B=2, C=3, etc. All the way to Z=26. Also you will need a pad of paper and a pen.

Ok we will only use the last four digits of the coordinates for our math. Example N33 5A.AAA W118 0B.BBB.
Start with writing down the north #'s, and the west #'s. So you should have(north) AAAA and (west) BBBB.
You are standing next to a sign with two words on it. For the north coordinate, add letters 1,2,3,4, and 5 together, then subtract letter 6. After you have done this, subtract this # from the north coordinate. This will give you wp2 north coordinate. For the west coordinate, add letters 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, and 10 together. Subtract this # from the wp1 west coordinate to give you wp2 west coordinate.

Now at wp2, you should see a sign with 7 letters and 1 with 10 letters(all big). The one with seven letters will go first in your counting of letters. Example, yyyyyyy zzzzz zzzzz. For the north coordinate add letter 13 to the north coordinate of wp2, to give you the coordinate to north wp3. Then add letters 1, 2,3,4,5,6,9,12, and 17 together. Add this # to the wp2 west coordinate, to give you the west coordinate to wp3.

When you get this solved you will be standing within five feet of the cache. Good luck, and isn't walking fun!
