Geocache Description:

You are looking for a micro. Cache is not at the above posted coordinates. To locate the container, you must first solve the puzzle. Good luck and Happy Pi Day! BYOP


Pi is the 13th letter of the Greek alphabet and is the mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. No matter what size circle is used, when you divide the circumference by the diameter you always get the same number, 3.14159… or Pi. The numbers after the decimal point have been calculated out to over 5 trillion places and they still continue on from there.

Being an irrational number, Pi cannot be expressed as a common fraction or terminating decimal number. Expressed as a decimal, the digits of Pi never end or repeat, but continue endlessly in a seemingly random sequence. In his science fiction novel Contact, Carl Sagan imagined that some unfathomable cosmic intelligence had hidden a message deep within the digits of Pi. An outlandish idea, wouldn't you say? Or is it?

OK, now here's my little puzzle:

3.1_15926535897_323846_6433832_9502884197169_99375105_20 97494_592307816406_86208998_28034825342_17067

N 33 32.(6th - 1st) (7th) (6th - 8th)
W 82 07.(7th + 8th) (3rd + 9th) (8th - 3rd)



You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
