Geocache Description:


This is a fast four stage multi that would be especially fun to do with young children.

The sidewalks near some elementary schools have been painted with yellow paint. The paint states an activity followed by where to put your feet as you do the activity.  For example, if the sidewalk says “skip” it shows where to place your feet to skip.

This cache will take you to four of these sidewalk locations and covers a short distance (less than 500m). Parking is available on any side street.  Only simple math is needed for this geocache and you will also need to convert letters of the alphabet to their numerical equivalent where A=1, B=2, C=3 etc.

The final is located at N43 27.A0C and W80 31.B3D

The posted coordinates take you to Stage 1 – N43 27.523, W80 31.935.  At the coordinates there is a three letter word.  “A” is the numerical equivalent of the third letter minus 10.

Stage 2 – N43 27.456 W80 31.927 At the coordinates there is another three letter word. “B” is the numerical equivalent of the first letter plus 1.

Stage 3 – N43 27.427 W80 31.948 At the coordinates there is four letter word. “C” is the numerical equivalent of the second letter plus 7.

Stage 4 – N43 27.397 W80 31.932 At the coordinates there is a four letter word. “D” is the numerical equivalent of the third letter minus 4.

The final is a small camoed match stick container in a public space. It only has space for log.  Make sure you bring your own pen.
