Geocache Description:

A quick two-stage multi in a popular new place in Santa Clara.  Bring a writing stick


Welcome to a new gathering spot in Santa Clara, today it looked like everybody was here.

The given coordinates should lead you to the front of large building. Look up at the three words in green stating the name of the enterprise inside the building. The final stage location and the actual physical cache coordinates are:

N 37 22.ABC W 121 58.DEF

  • A= Combined lengths of 1st and 2nd words, minus 1
  • B= Number of times letter “O” is used in 2nd word
  • C= Number of times letter “J” is used in 1st word plus 1
  • D= Length of 1st word
  • E= Length of 3rd word minus 2
  • F= Length of 2nd word

Please return cache to the location as you found it. Checksum for the 6 digits is 26.

Update 4/4/16 The sign originally used is gone so the puzzle was edited to utilize what remains. This allows the starting coords to remain the same. Due to recent thefts from parked cars, the security here patrols aggressively during prime weekday hours.

You can validate your solution with certitude.

Congratulations to geocasual for the FTF!
