Geocache Description:

Pi is the most recognized mathematical constant in the world.  By definition, pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi is always the same number, no matter which circle you use to compute it.  Pi has been calculated out to over one trillion digits.  Using pi calculated out to only 39 decimal places would allow one to compute the circumference of the entire universe to the accuracy of less than the diameter of a hydrogen atom.


This cache has been placed in advance of a Pi Day event.  If you find this cache on Pi Day (2015) you will receive a souvenir.  This year (2015) is a special Pi Day because it is the year 15 which allows us to have a Pi Day out to 10 digits: 3.141592653.  Date: 3-14-15  Time:  9:26:53.  Most years you only get 3 digits: 3.14.

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates.  To get the final coordinates you will need to solve the following puzzle:

23  3  11  33  30  9  36

2  37  14  24  28  19  29  38

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.

The cache is in a very nice location that can be high in muggle traffic.  Please be patient and wait until the coast is clear before going in for the find.  The container is magnetic.  

Have fun!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ESTER13 AND MRS. ESTER13 FOR FTF!!!
