PINECREST PERPLEXER II
In honor of TechnoNut's infamous cache close by, I thought this would be a tribute to his famous cache. Instead of having the multi out in the open again, it was decided to keep it "in house"
There are a few things to remember......
[1] You do not have to pay for parking.... there are free open bays available
[2] You do not have to walk through the shopping center to get to WP1 or the final. It will make your journey shorter, but not easier
[3] There are a lot of security personnel and cameras all over - EMPLOY YOUR BEST INCONSPICUOUS STEALTH MODE
[4] The D-rating is high due to the cameras and stealth factors and the search for the clue involved
[5] The T-rating is based on the fact that you have to traverse 4 or 5 levels down and up and around using any combination of stairs, lifts, walkways and escalators
[6] The clue at WP1 is the answer to the checker
[7] Further instructions will be given in the checker
PS : Preferably do this during normal shopping hours

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
