Puzzle:
That cache page in your hand will do the job of measuring if you do not have a tape measure. The standard sheet of paper is 11 inches tall.
Using the cache page measure what is in front of you. Once you have that count in hand it’s time to work it out.
North is total inches divided by 3 less 1. Add that number to the posted north cords.
West is the total amount of inches less the amount of cache pages it takes to get across. Subtract that number from the posted west cords.
