Geocache Description:

This is an easy multi-cache once you figure out the complicated system used to find the final location. It runs along most of the trail called "the bog".                                    Warning: If you use your gps to read the description some of the symbols used may not be displayed correctly

This cache involves looking at signs at the waypoints below then doing a little bit of math to figure out the final location. Waypoint 1 (listed coordinates) At this waypoint you will see a picture of some kind of animal, take the 2nd letter of this animal and convert it to a number (i.e. A=1, B=2, etc.). That will be ♠ Waypoint 2 At this waypoint you will see a green sign, take the 5th letter in the first word on the sign and convert it to a number using the same method as you did for waypoint 1. (include sign "titles") That will be ♣ Waypoint 3 At this waypoint you will see a word under your feet, take the 2nd letter in that word and convert it to a number using the same method (use that method from now on) That will be♥ Waypoint 4 At this waypoint you will see a sign slightly off the path, take the 2nd letter of the 2nd word and convert it to a number. That will be ♦ Now here’s the math (pemdas doesn’t apply, just go left to right) ♦-♥+2=Ω ♥ squared -391=¥ 999/♣/3/3-100-4=© ♠*4/2/2-12=® Final Waypoint coordinates: N 47 32.Ω¥® W 121 52.Ω©3
