Geocache Description:

Hackettstown's second mystery cache, but this time with two parts! First, you need to decrypt the message, which is a question. The answer to this question will be broken up and imputted into the template, which will then be used to get the final coordinates.

To get to the cache, park in the Alumni Field Parking lot, then walk back towards the exit. to the right, there should be a paved pathway with a sign that says: "No private vehilchals beyond this point." If you follow this path, you should have a small stream on both sides of the path and the cache will be somewere along it. Beware, if you do not want to cross a small stream by wading or jumping over, this cache will NOT be reachable. This cache is not accesable after dusk.

The Puzzle:

Once the question is dycripted, enter the answer to the qestion into this: N 40°51.XXX W 074°49.XXX. What this means, is that if the answer were "degree", then the product would be N 40°51.DEG W 074°49.REE. This would make the final coordinates N 40°51.836 W 074°49.133
