Geocache Description:


This is a simple 2 stage MULTI, with some simple (as long as it doesn't drive you nutty) math at Stage 1.

Better bring a pencil & paper.

Three squirrels (NOBBY, PETER PAN, ROCKY) live here.  They have been busy, gathering nuts.

Being very KRAFTy fellows, each arranged his nuts in a different manner.  After all, not everyone likes mixed nuts.

NOBBY made a NECKLACE (N).     

PETER PAN made pretty PATTERNS (P).    

ROCKY hung his on 3 ROWS of line (R).   

  1. Count each squirrel’s nuts
  2. Calculate the TOTAL (T).     
  3. Create two 4-digit numbers  NP   and     RT  
  4. Divide NP÷1000, then add it to North 42 49.997
  5. Divide RT÷1000, then add it to West 080 20.498
  6. Off to the final.  Yes, of course, it could be a PB jar!!

Please, out of consideration for the locals,

NO NIGHT CACHING

PLEASE WEAR ORANGE DURING HUNTING SEASON
