To figure out the number that the letter 'W' stands for in the coordinate formula, just look on the bottom of the container!
Once you have found out what number the letter W stands for, keep it a secret, put that number into the coordinate puzzle below and you are now one step closer to locating the mystery final!!
If you would like to find the Wild Goose Chase mystery final, you'll need to solve the coordinate puzzle by swapping out the letters for numbers you will figure out at each of the 4 traditional caches in the series. Here's the coordinate puzzle that will help you locate the mystery final:
N 46 3W.ILD
W 84 19.WLD
As you find the 4 traditional caches around town in this series, be sure to record the numbers that the letters represent at each of them. At some of the caches, the number will simply be written on the container, but at others you will need to do a little fancy figuring to find out the number that goes with the letter at the end of the cache name.
The caches that you need to find before being able to locate the mystery final are named "Wild Goose Chase - W", "Wild Goose Chase - I", "Wild Goose Chase - L" and "Wild Goose Chase - D". Each of the letters that are at the end of the cache names (W I L & D) need to be replaced in the formula above with numbers that you will discover at each of the 4 traditional caches.
For example, when you navigate to "Wild Goose Chase - W", you will be able to log that cache as a find but you will also need to figure out (by following the instructions in that cache description) which number will replace the "W" in the formula above. Record the information so you don't forget and then put it all together by swapping out the letters in the formula for the numbers you have found and figured out. Clear as mud?!
We hope you have fun on this wild goose chase around town!
