3.1415 are the first digits of pi. It will be another 100 years before the date matches the first 5 digits of pi(3/14/15). As a BONUS, if you find a Mystery Cache on 3/14/15 you will receive a Pi day Mystery Souvenir for your profile from geocaching.com.
First a quick lesson on pi
The number pi is a mathematical constant, the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, commonly approximated as 3.14. Pi is an irrational number and the decimals are infinite. The first recorded algorithm for rigorously calculating the value of pi was a geometrical approach using polygons, devised around 250 BC by the Greek mathematician Archimedes and is also referred to as the "Archimedes Constant". 3/14 is also Einstein's birthday.
Now the Puzzle
Using the infinite digits of pie, if the puzzle says"3rd" you would substitute the 3rd digit of pie which is 4.
Stage 1
N 1st, 10th 11th, 50th . 51st, 33rd, 7th
W 4th, 2nd 12th, 86th 87th. 44th, 39th, 6th
Stage 2
If you solved stage 1 correctly, you should be standing in the middle of a circle or pie shape. From here using the same substitution method I am providing Bearings and Distance.
Bearing: 7th, 4th, 10th degrees
Distance: 12th, 14th, 9th feet
If you have solved stage 2 correctly, you should be in the vicinity of another familiar shape.
It is only big enough for a log so bring your own pen.
Good Luck!
