Geocache Description:

A puzzle cache hidden as part of the 10th Annual Vancouver Island Hide and Go Cache - HAGX.


The cache is NOT at the published coordinates so don't go there! You will get very wet!!! Cache is on land about 960 metres away, close to a trail through the woods. To find the location N 48 28.GHI and W 123 18.JHK, you must FIRST find the other 5 puzzle caches in this series - Latin Words, Latin Geography, Latin Phrases, Latin Warnings and Latin Idioms. In each of those caches, you will find one of the missing numbers. These numbers are of the type used by those who spoke Latin.

Then, substitute the revised numbers into GHI and JHK to get the final coordinates for this cache.

Location is off campus, somewhere in the real world nearby.
