Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES

This is to replace the other GOLD MEDAL cache (GC1MZZ9), which was continually muggled.  p>

Note: Cache has been relocated yet again on August 9, 2020(only across the road), so if you did your calculations prior to August 9, please recalculate. Cache had to be moved due to new land owners with a big dog. New location is much safer and quieter. Apologies for any inconvenience.


In order to log find this cache, you need to find the other 4 "GOLDEN" caches in this series, and record the letter & number written inside each lid.

Golden Egg (A), Golden Golf Ball (B), Gold Nugget (C), Golden Spike (D)

All caches in this series are family-friendly.

DIGITAL ROOT is found by adding all the digits in a number, then re-adding them until you have a single digit (eg 987=9+8+7=24,  2+4=6)

TO FIND THE N COORD:

1. Add A+D, then find its digital root 

2 Add the digital root to N42 44.083

TO FIND THE W COORD:

1. Add B+C, then find its digital root

2. Add the digital root to W080 14.165

Please note......do not divide by 1000!!

The final is located in front of a "geocache-friendly" home, with full permission of the home owner.

Out of consideration for the locals, please NO NIGHT CACHING
