Geocache Description:

This is an easy Multi-cache. You will have to travel through a long, beautiful "tree tunnel" to reach the first waypoint in order to calculate the final coordinates. A small amount of easy math will be required for the calculation.


At the published coordinates you will find a black sign that has three lines with white words on it (the first line has two words in it). You will have to use these three lines of words for your calculation.
  • When A=1; B=2; C=3; etc. Use this to convert the letters into numerical.
  • In {X.Y}, X is the letter and Y is the word in the particular line. For example in {4.2}, 4 is the fourth letter and 2 is the second line on the board.

For the final coordinates, calculate the following:

S 260 21.{ (9.3 x 4.1) + 5.2 +8.3 }

E 0270 25.{ [(3.3 x 3.1) + (9.3 x 6.3)] - 6.1 }


After the calculation has been done, you will find that you drove past the cache on your way to the first waypoint. The area is usually quite peaceful with not a lot of muggles around. You might find a few cars parked in the shades of the trees.

Happy caching!
