Geocache Description:

New Brighton, Minnesota

New Brighton likes to remember tragic events.  One block down from here is the tribute to the Space Shuttle Challenger crew and Here you are standing at a memorial to the victims of September 11, 2001.  


Do you remember where you were when terrorists used airplanes to attack The Pentagon, The World Trade Center Towers, and failing an attack on the White House when passengers on that flight forced a crash into the countryside of Somerset County, PA?

 I do.  

I was teaching 8th grade in Golden Valley.  I was on prep period and watching the news.  The moment the programming cut in to the attacks it was surreal.  I had been in the trade center, I had visited Washington D.C. I was born in PA and know people in Somerset County. 

These were places no one could attack; Until then...

You are standing in front of a nice monument plaque erected to remember the events of 9-11-2001.  Using this plaque, determine the coordinates to the final.

N 45 03.9-11

W 093 11.2001

9-11= How many clouds are there?  Multiply that by 41.47.  Round up.

2001=How many trees are there? Multiply that by 73.5.

The final is only a few blocks away.  Please be mindful of the neighbors.
