Geocache Description:

This is a regular sized cache in a area where a cache needed to be. Should be an easy puzzle, and the final is very easy to get to and to find.

The cache container is a old ARGO cornstarch container with black tape on it. the cache has lots of swag and a few small pencils. You may want a calculator to solve the puzzle.
