Note: The final location of the cache (which is in a tree that requires climbing) was approved by the Supervisor of Urban Forestry and Facilities of the CNV (City of North Vancouver). If you would also like to place a geocache in a tree that requires climbing, you must obtain permission from the person responsible in your area.
*This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates, however you need to go there to solve the puzzle*
This is a very simple Mystery Cache. In order to gather all of the information, you will need to get some information from signs in the area. If you go to the posted coordinates, you will find a bench. At the final location, you will need to climb a bit, hence the terrain difficulty. Please do not remove the container, just open the lid.
Coordinates: N49°AB.CDE W123°FG.HIJ
A: On the sign at the bench, how many Y's are there in the first line?
B: the number of E's + I's on the sign.
C: Which line has the most G's?
D: Take the second letter of the third line. What number does it look like?
E: The next sign you are looking for is a bus stop sign (not the one at grand blvd). Find the bus stop number on the sign. Add up the sum of the numbers and subtract 12.
F: For this one you need to go a bit further to the right (looking at it from the perspective when sitting on the bench), you will find a small green sign. Now add the number of letters in words 3 and 4, and subtract that from the number of words on the sign.
G: On that same sign, subtract the number of letters of the 4th word from the number of letters in the 5th word.
H: The last sign you need is the sign that states the name of the park you are in. What is the number of letters in the first word of the name?
I: What is the number of letters in the second word of the name of the park?
J: Finally, you add 5 to the number of words in the first line of the sign.
