Geocache Description:


This is a two-stage multi-cache. First stage is a bison tube. Final is a small clear lock-and-lock.
Both stages are within the Ramanessin Section of Holmdel Park. A trail map is available here.
WEAR BLAZE ORANGE DURING HUNTING SEASON.

This cache is designed to be an easy find (the final location is described explicitly below), but an at-least-moderately-challenging journey. Boots recommended. I hid this in winter and suggest seeking it under similar conditions. Should you attempt this in the summer... well, good luck; and if you succeed, I look forward to reading the tale of your adventure.

The posted coordinates will bring you to a camo bison tube. See the photo below to guide your search:
Jump - Stage One

Within that tube you will find a question, the answer to which is one word. Convert each letter of that word into its corresponding numerical place in the alphabet (i.e., A = 1, B = 2, and so on up to Z = 26). The final cache coordinates are as follows:

North 40° [3rd letter + 5th letter] . [(1st letter x 2nd letter) + (4th letter x 6th letter) - 10th letter]'
West 74° [5th letter - 4th letter] . [(1st letter + 9th letter) x 8th letter]'

The final is tucked under the roots of a large tree (on its west side) next to an old fence post. See the photo below to guide your search once you've successfully reached GZ. Jump - Final Location

Finally, here is some music to accompany you on your journey.

Good luck!
