12 found, 2 hidden, 1 still active.

This is a multi, not a mystery, stage 1 is at the posted coordinates.

There is no need to move stage 1 and possibly put it back a little off.

Stage 1 has a word on it, a simple, easy to remember, easy to spell word.
Just read it, you won’t get it wrong.

Take the word and turn the letters in to numbers using their place in the alphabet (A=1, B=2 ...).
Add the numbers together and divide by 1000 and add it to N 42° 28.217 to get the latitude.
Add the same number to W 073° 16.417 to get the longitude.

Example:

CACHE
3 + 1 + 3 + 8 + 5 = 20
20 ÷ 1000 = .020
N 42° 28.217 + .020 = N 42° 28.237
W 073° 16.417 + .020 = W 073° 16.437

The final is walking distance from the swimming beach. It‘s a small lock & lock.
