Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates are for the Post Office. The cache is NOT in or next to the building. But, it's a good place to start to gather the necessary information. The cache is within walking distance from the Post Office.

This cache series was originally developed by Maryland cacher MDSurveyor with the cache P.O. Box – Bel Air in April of 2008. We recently found foon's P.O. Box - El Segundo and fastflyer's P.O Box - Newbury Park Station. We had lots of fun finding them, and soon discovered that there were quite a few of these P.O. Box geocaches all across the country. We contacted MDSurveyor, and with his kind permission and help, we are continuing the concept to include Manhattan Beach, CA.



Most of the P.O. Box geocaches use a (Grid:Row:Column) system, from the original P.O. Box - Bel Air cache, to identify which P.O. boxes you need to find. Our puzzle is a little bit different. You still need to find several boxes, but rather than a Grid:Row:Column number we'll give you a starting box and then some directions to get to the box you're looking for.

North = Up, South = Down, West = Left, East = Right.

e.g. "start at 100, go South 1, East 1" would mean find box 100, and count one box down, and one box to the right to find the new number.


ABC : start at 301, go South 2, East 3
JKLM : start at 2095, go South 3, West 1
XYZ : start at 730, go North 5, West 5


The final cache location is:

N 33° YC.KZA W 118° JB.LXM



The P.O. Box lobby is open 24 hours a day, Monday through Saturday,
but it is closed on Sunday.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
