Geocache Description:

Final cache was changed to a small bison to deal with the muggles. BYOP.

OK Guys and girls. "Five Benches" is to celebrate the opening of one of this Guys favorite hamburger places nearby.  Since Wally's Lot (GCQ41F) is already very close to the new location, us Guys (Mike_Tango and I) couldn't hide our cache nearby so we Guys decided to place it somewhere else. The 5 benches seemed appropriate.

Original was a small coffee can with lots of goodies and a pretty tasty hamburger on me, for one of you Guys or girls (FTF).
It got muggled quickly after the FTF and a better camo'd replacement did not fair much better. 3rd time wasn't a charm either, city capped the pipe with the cache, so long story longer, now it is a small bison tube. We'll see if this one holds up.

Some short terrain challenges to the final cache and bushes to negotiate. You will need to do some math in the field to determine the final coordinates.

At stage 1 (GZ) look for a small bison on a light pole. Bottom of the log sheet has coordinates to the 5 benches. Once you've arrived at the coordinates provided face the 5 benches.

You will notice some numbers stenciled on the left front support of each bench. The right side of each bench is also sequentially numbered from 1 to 5. (These numbers were all conveniently provided by the city of Temecula)

Bench 1 is on the far right when facing the benches.

Use the numbers stenciled on the front left support in your calculations.

Final Cache is at:

N33 [# on bench 5] . [(Add #'s on benches 3, 2 & 1) x the number of "Guys" in this description - # on bench 4]

W117 [# in the Title] . [(# on bench 3 x 3) + (# on bench 2 x 4) - (# on bench 1 x 2)].



Congrats to Spoons1 and BBSquared for FTF. Enjoy the burger.
