Geocache Description:

* Cache is not at the posted coordinates *

All the containers in this series are similar as well as the hides. Neither the puzzles nor the hides should be too difficult although some will be more challenging than others. Those that want a real challenge can attempt to find at least 50 puzzles on the same day and can qualify for the Very Puzzling Day Challenge, GC4GTY0.

Another tip when solving puzzles is that sometimes your puzzle results won't be in the standard HH MM.MMM format that is presented on the cache page. The most common alternate format is decimal degrees but there are even more formats out there. If you notice on the cache page, below the posted coordinates it shows UTM coordinates and a link that says 'Other Conversions'. When solving a puzzle if you get numbers that are fairly close to one of the listed coordinate conversions there's a good chance you're on the right track

For this puzzle you need to do some simple math which will give you the UTM coordinates to the cache

For the Easting, 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 6121

For the Northing, 723227 * 6

After doing the math you will want to convert these numbers to a format you can use with your gpsr.
