This is a simple 2-stage multicache in the TSP (aka Tick Springs Park). It’s Difficulty rating of 2.5 reflects the foliage at the CZ and the small size of the container (matchstick holder). The Terrain rating of 3 reflects the rough terrain approaching stage 2 along the abundance of thorns (and TICKS) that are in the area. Recommend bug spray unless there is snow on the ground. You can take the "high road or the low road" approacing the CZ. Recommend the low road and be careful crossing the stream.
Stage 1 is a virtual stage. At the posted coordinates you will find a yellow, metal sign with black numbers arranged vertically. You will use these numbers to calculate the coordinates for the final (stage 2).
The Top number is A; the second number down is B; the third number down is C; the fourth number down is D; the fifth number down is E and the bottom number is F.
Stage 2 is a matchstick holder located at N39 1S.TUV W094 4W.XYZ. Solve the following eight equations to find stage 2.
S = A – B
T = C + E
U = C + D
V = E + F
W = (F – B) + D
X = A - F
Y = F - B
Z = F - D
