Geocache Description:


Hampden Branch

This cache is located at the Hampden Branch Library.
This location's hours can also be found here: HERE




This is a Letterbox Hybrid so the posted coordinates will be your starting point. There will be some simple tasks ahead for you to find the final, and get your stamp. You will need to figure out a number to find it. Ready? Let's go!

From the posted coordinates, count how many pillars are in this area. This number is A.

Now, enter the library, and once you go through the second set of doors,
go FIVE paces forward to the beautiful metal art wall. There are often things in front of this wall, so this time we'll just use the top row.

Look at the artwork that is FOUR over from the LEFT on the TOP row. How many shapes are there attached inside the circle? This number is B.
Look at the artwork that is FOUR over from the RIGHT on the TOP row. How many crescent moons are there? This number is C.

Now you should have numbers for A, B, and C. Add them all together.
If they equal 18, the geocache container is at the ideaLAB desk
If they equal 27, the geocache container is in the top right corner of HOLDS
If they equal 36, the geocache container is at computer station #3

Please do NOT remove the stamp from this cache. Finding this cache will be easy, but opening may be difficult. There are two locks on it. You have three hints available on the back of the geocache in ROT13 if you need them. Good luck!
