About this cache: The cache is not at the posted coordinates. The posted coordinates bring you to St. Helen Veterans Memorial where you get the information to solve for the final location. At the posted coordinates there are two signs with the same 10-digit phone number (XXX-XXX-XXXX) to call for information (Please do not call this number for cache help!). You will need to gather numbers to plug into an equation to get the final location.
