Geocache Description:

This virtual two-part cache is located in Eagle Creek Park. If you enjoy a quiet walk in the woods, this hunt is for you!

Your first goal is to go to the co-ordinates stated, where you will find a surveyor's marker stating the elevation of this point in the form of wxy.z feet.

Let w = the 100's digit
Let x = the 10's digit
Let y = the 1's digit
Let z = the tenth's digit

Your second virtual cache is located at
N 39 51.543
W 86 zw.yzx

The final destination is a wooden bridge connected to a wooden staircase. You first quest is to determine the number of stair-steps to the first landing. E-mail that number to verify your find.

Your second quest is to sit down on the landing and enjoy the birds, the wind in the trees, and the water in the stream just a few feet away. You get to do this in almost complete solitude. It's a very nice place to unwind. I hope you enjoy the serenity as much as I do.

NOTE: To get to these cache's, you will NEVER have to leave the trail's. Many times though you will come to forks in the trail's and have to flip a coin as to which one to take. Take a wrong-turn, and you will have to backtrack!!
