Geocache Description:

The posted coordinates will take you to a mural in Havre de Grace where your powers of observation will help you get the necessary information to determine the coordinates for each cache stage, both of which are within walking distance of the mural.


This mural is along the roadside and there is a steady flow of traffic on this road, so please be careful.  The observations are of the mural on the larger wall and the overpass, and can be made from the same side of the street as the mural. You do not need to step into the street or cross the road to make the observations!

At or near the posted coordinates find the following:

  • AB = the number of letters in the name of the mural
  • C = the number of people listed that have the letter ”R” in their name

Using the sidewalk, walk behind the mural to the other end (approximate coordinates N 39 33.396 W 76 05.917) to find the next couple of numbers:

  • D = the number of sailboats on the right end of the mural (don't count anything past the pipe)
  • E = the number of crabs next to the crab trap

Now move further along the sidewalk, so that you can see the overpass.

  • FG = the number of letters in the wording on the overpass
  • HI = the number of Canada geese to the right of the wording on the overpass on the orange background (not on the steel support beam)

The coordinates for the final are N 39 RS.TUV W 076 0W.XYZ, where:

  • R = A + F
  • S = B – E
  • T = C – H
  • U = D + W
  • V = E * D
  • W = F + A + E
  • X = G – F
  • Y = H * 2
  • Z = I + R

Checksum for A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H + I = 32
