This is a simple 2-part multi. The park is closed from 11:30pm to 4:00am.
Montlake Playfield was originally a 20 foot deep peat bog. After a time being part of a dalia farm, it was dedicated as a playfield in 1935. Continual flooding occurred so in 1960 the playfield was raised with fill, including dirt taken from the excavation of State Route 520 through Montlake. However, the ground remains uneven and boggy to this day which you may notice, depending when you are here. Today the playfield includes the Montlake Community Center in two buildings, a children’s play area, tennis and basketball courts, and ball fields.
The listed coordinates will bring you to the corner of one of the buildings and straight ahead is the children’s play area where most of your counting will take place.
1) Look left between the two buildings. The number of vertical poles with silver caps is A.
2) The number of permanent wooden benches is B.
3) The number of blue balls on the jungle gym with the blue slide only on the ground and in the middle (NOT on the top) is C.
4) The number of permanent picnic tables is D.
5) Look at the sign prohibiting dogs and other pets in the area with play equipment. There is a number starting with S,M.C. Let E be E8.E2.080.
The final coordinates are: N 47 38.(B+E)AA W122 18.D(C-D)B
Checksum is N = 41, W = 30
The final is a short walk away. There is a paved path along the edge of the park which is often busy with pedestrians and bikers. The cache is off the path on the right. The container is one generously raffled off by WatchDOGSMike at one of his events.
