Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

In order to find the cache you have to answer a simple question and do a little bit of math.





According to the books by L. Frank Baum what color are Dorothy's shoes when she is in the magical land of OZ?

Take this answer and sum up the value of each letter.  A=1, B=2...   Call this new value Z.

Take the value of Z and multiply it by the value of Z.  Call this new value Y.

Add Y to N41 24.472  and to W87 43.629 to get the final coordinates.
