Geocache Description:



 

CEDAR RIVER FISHERY

The Cedar River is home to native and wild Rainbow and Cutthroat trout, Coho and Chinook salmon, Steelhead and hatchery Sockeye salmon (from the Landsburg hatchery). The Cedar has a "catch and release" rule for all angler so that fish can continue their life cycles and spawn.

This Multicache will take you to some information signs in the park that will hopefully give you a little more information about the fish of the Cedar River.

WAYPOINT 1

WP1 brings you to two signs that gives you information about two different fish that call the Cedar home. Lets first look at the far left one first.

A= How many red fish are depicted on the sign (+3)

B= How many juvenile salmon are shown on the sign?

Now take a look at the sign on the right to obtain your answer for the following questions:

C= Chinook salmon go by how many other names (+1)

D= Chinook juveniles either migrate directly toward the ocean or remain in the river to feed and grow up to ______ months (+2)

WAYPOINT 2

Head on over to WP2 and focus your attention on a bright green sign which bears the name of the cache. Here you will find the answers to the following:

E= Under the section of the sign titled "Healthy Trout River Water Temperature Guide" the first digit of the water temperature in the "HIGH TEMP RANGE" is your answer for "E".

F= Under the "Cedar River Fishing Rulee" section, you will find the Washington State Game Warden's number. What is the 7th digit (counting from left to right)?

You now have the final coordinates. To confirm that you have the correct numbers, here is a quick checksum

The missing NORTH coordinates equal 11

The missing WEST coordinates equal 16

 

THE CACHE IS LOCATED @:  N 47 28. ABC   W 122 10.DEF
